Shrimp Stuffed Mushrooms

Shrimp Stuffed Mushrooms

8 oz large stuffing mushrooms
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small rib celery, chopped
3 oz small shrimp, peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons seasoned bread crumbs
Sliced Mozzarella cut into squares to place on top of mushrooms

Remove the stems from the mushrooms, trim and discard the tough ends, and chop the stems finely. Heat the oil in a skillet over moderate heat and sauté the mushroom stems and celery for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and sauté 1 minute. Spoon the shrimp mixture into the mushroom caps and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Place cheese on top. Cook under a preheated broiler until the tops are golden brown, about 8 minutes. Serves 4 to 6.
