Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Gently clean the cremini mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and reserve them for the filling.
Finely chop the mushroom stems, green onions, garlic, and jalapeño pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems, garlic, green onions, and jalapeño. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sautéed vegetables, Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, hot sauce, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.
Using a teaspoon, carefully stuff each mushroom cap with the filling, pressing gently to ensure it is well-packed.
Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly drizzle or brush them with a bit of olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.
Remove the mushrooms from the oven and allow them to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a delightful appetizer or snack with extra hot sauce on the side, if desired.
