Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 pieces Button mushrooms or cremini mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium, finely chopped Shallot
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 4 ounces, softened Cream cheese
- 0.33 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup, grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon, chopped Fresh thyme
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Gently remove the stems and set them aside. Arrange the mushroom caps, hollow-side up, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased with cooking spray.
Finely chop the mushroom stems and set them aside.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened.
Add the shallot and garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed mixture with cream cheese, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, thyme, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until fully incorporated.
Using a spoon or small scoop, fill each mushroom cap generously with the cream cheese mixture.
Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray to encourage browning.
Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden brown on top.
Remove the mushrooms from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
