Seafood Stuffed Portobella Mushrooms

I had something like this at the last restaurant I used to work at and I don't have the recipe for it but I decided to make my own version of it. It was amazingly good!! This is also super great with bow-tie pasta to make a seafood pasta as well... 


Ingredients:
4 Portobella mushrooms
1 can Large baby shrimp
1 can whole baby clams
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 tbl basil
2 tbl butter / margarine
1 tbl olive oil
1 whole head of garlic
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Dash of pepper
Dash of cajun seasoning

Prep:
~In skillet pan, heat up olive oil and grill mushrooms (both sides)
~Add 2 tbl butter and cover to cook for a few minutes
~Remove mushrooms and pat dry with paper towel
~Add drained shrimp and drained clams to the pan, mince half head of garlic, add 1/2 cup whipping cream along with pepper and cajun seasoning. Mix and sautee up in pan till it becomes a thick mixture.
~In a pot, add remaining cream, butter, grated Parmesan cheese, mince the rest of the garlic and add basil, stir constantly on a med-low heat until butter and cheese is melted and sauce is hot
~Then take seafood mixture and pack into the bottom of mushrooms. Pour sauce over top.
