Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces large button mushrooms
- 2 pieces roasted red peppers
- 120 grams cream cheese
- 40 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 30 grams breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel, remove the stems, and set the caps aside. Finely chop the stems.
3. Dice the roasted red peppers into small pieces and set them aside.
4. In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and cook for 3–4 minutes until softened.
5. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
6. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked mushroom stems, roasted red peppers, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the filling is creamy and well-blended.
7. Spoon the filling into each mushroom cap, generously filling each one.
8. In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with 1 tablespoon of olive oil until evenly coated. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture on top of the filled mushroom caps.
9. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.
10. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
