Tender cremini or button mushrooms are filled with a velvety mixture of cream cheese, finely chopped smoked salmon, fresh dill, chives, lemon zest, and a hint of garlic for a burst of freshness in every bite. A crisp golden breadcrumb topping, lightly tossed in olive oil, adds a delightful crunch, while a quick bake in the oven ensures a warm, melt-in-your-mouth experience.

Garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs, they’re as elegant as they are irresistible—a true crowd-pleaser!
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Clean the mushrooms gently with a damp paper towel, then remove the stems to create room for filling. Set the caps aside on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Finely chop the smoked salmon, mushroom stems, fresh dill, and chives.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped smoked salmon, cream cheese, dill, chives, lemon zest, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well-incorporated.
Spoon the filling evenly into the mushroom caps, packing each cap generously.
In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with olive oil until the crumbs are lightly coated.
Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the stuffed mushrooms.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the mushroom caps are tender, the filling is heated through, and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh dill or chives for presentation, if desired.
