To start with, preheat your oven to 375ºF (190ºC), and arrange the mushrooms on a baking sheet brushed with olive oil.
Now, let's prepare the shrimp stuffing. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp, minced garlic, green onions, bell pepper, celery, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the shrimp is pink and the vegetables are tender.
Once the stuffing mix is ready, carefully spoon it into each mushroom cap. Make sure to pack it in tightly so each bite is full of flavor. Then, sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the stuffed mushrooms.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking.
If you want to add a bit of crunch to your Shrimp Stuffed Mushrooms, consider topping them with a sprinkle of panko breadcrumbs before baking. This gives a delightful contrast to the soft mushrooms and juicy shrimp stuffing.
