Description

This Breadcrumb Stuffed mushroom is a super easy and simple appetizer or side dish recipe. Takes barely any time to make and the cheesy bread crumbs just melt in the mouth. The perfect way to dress a celebration or the weekend dinner table. I use large mushrooms but any size mushrooms work just as well.

Ingredients 

  • 8 (8 ) Mushrooms large
  • 2 slices (2 slices) Fresh bread (about 1 ½ cup crumbs)
  • ½ teaspoon (½ teaspoon) Garlic minced finely
  • ¼ cup (¼ cup) Onion chopped finely and cooked
  • ¼ cup (¼ cup) Fresh herbs cilantro or parsley chopped finely
  • 2 tablespoon (2 tablespoon) Parmesan cheese grated
  • 2 tbsp (2 tbsp ) Cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoon (2 tablespoon) Mozzarella cheese grated
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) Olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon (¼ teaspoon) Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon (¼ teaspoon) Pepper

Instructions

FOR THE MUSHROOMS

  • Preheat the oven at 190 C/ 380 F
  • Clean the mushrooms well by wiping them with a moist paper towel.
  • Remove the stalks gently so you do not break the mushrooms
  • Using a teaspoon carefully scrape off the gills to create more space (inside of the mushroom caps).
  • Chop the mushrooms stalks finely and add them to the chopped onions.
  • Line a baking tray with Aluminium foil for easy cleanup.
  • Coat the foil with olive oil to prevent the mushrooms from sticking.
  • Then lightly coat the mushroom caps with olive oil. This will prevent them from drying out.

PREPARE THE FILLING

  • Pulse the bread slices in the food processor until they are fine crumb consistency.
  • In a mixing bowl add all the filling ingredients
  • Chopped mushrooms stalks
  • Both fresh and dried breadcrumbs
  • Minced garlic, and cooked onions (optional)
  • Chopped herbs,
  • Grated cheeses
  • Season with salt and Pepper to taste (use less salt as the cheese is salty)
  • Mix well – then drizzle two tablespoon of Olive Oil

STUFF THE MUSHROOMS

  • Hold each mushroom in your palm and gently stuff the cavity with the bread crumb stuffing.
  • Place them on the baking tray.
  • Drizzle with remaining Olive Oil
  • Bake in a preheated oven for about 20 to 25 minutes until the tops are nice and golden.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley before serving.
