Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large caps Portobello mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 8 ounces Fresh mozzarella
- 12 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic glaze
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Gently clean the portobello mushroom caps with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Place them gill-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the olive oil mixture generously over the mushroom caps, ensuring the gills are well coated.
Roast the mushrooms in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until tender and juicy.
While the mushrooms roast, slice the cherry tomatoes in half and cut the fresh mozzarella into thick slices or bite-sized pieces.
Once the mushrooms are roasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes.
Top each mushroom cap with several halved cherry tomatoes, mozzarella slices, and a few fresh basil leaves.
Drizzle balsamic glaze over the stuffed mushrooms and serve immediately. Enjoy your Roasted Portobello Caprese!
