This year with holiday entertaining taking on a whole new mindset, these fill-ya-up stuffed mushroom should be tops on your "must make" list. You see, by using U.S. Farm-Raised catfish as our secret ingredient, it keeps these super moist, packed with protein, and holiday special.

What You'll Need

3/4 pound U.S. farm-raised catfish fillets
1 1/2 teaspoon seafood seasoning, plus extra for sprinkling
1 pound Baby Bella mushrooms (about 18 to 20)
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs, divided
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon paprika

What to Do

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Place catfish on baking sheet and lightly sprinkle with seafood seasoning. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until fish is firm in center; let cool. Gently flake catfish and set aside.
Remove stems from mushrooms and set aside. Place mushroom caps on baking sheet that has been coated with cooking spray again.
In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, Swiss cheese, scallions, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, remaining 1-1/2 teaspoons seafood seasoning, the crushed red pepper, and Worcestershire sauce; mix well. Gently stir in flaked catfish.
Using a teaspoon, mound mushroom caps with catfish mixture. In a small bowl, mix remaining 1/4 cup breadcrumbs and the 1/2 teaspoon paprika. Sprinkle mixture over mushrooms.
Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until warmed through and lightly golden.
