Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Portabella mushroom caps
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 cups Marinara sauce
- 1 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 12 pieces Pepperoni slices (optional)
- 0.25 cups Sliced black olives (optional)
- 4 pieces Fresh basil leaves (optional)
Instructions
Gently clean the portabella mushroom caps with a damp cloth and remove the stems. Use a spoon to scrape out the gills if desired for a smoother surface.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Season the mushroom caps lightly with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Place the mushroom caps gill-side down in the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes until they release some moisture and begin to soften.
Flip the mushrooms to gill-side up and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Remove any liquid that pools in the caps with a paper towel.
Spread 1-2 tablespoons of marinara sauce evenly across the gill side of each mushroom cap.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the marinara sauce, dividing evenly among the mushrooms.
Add any desired toppings such as pepperoni slices, sliced black olives, or fresh basil leaves.
Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Allow the mushrooms to cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Carefully remove the mushroom pizzas from the skillet using a spatula and transfer them to a serving plate.
Serve immediately and enjoy your breadless portabella mushroom pizzas!
