Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Large button mushrooms
- 120 grams Cream cheese (softened)
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (leaves only)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 30 grams Breadcrumbs (optional, for topping)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel and gently remove the stems, setting the caps aside. Finely chop the stems.
In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, sautéed mushroom stems, parsley, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Stuff each mushroom cap generously with the cream cheese mixture, leveling the top with a spoon or spatula.
If desired, sprinkle a small amount of breadcrumbs on top of each stuffed mushroom for added crunch.
Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the mushrooms to help them roast evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the mushrooms are tender.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with additional parsley, if desired, and enjoy your Lushroom Mushrooms!
