Prep Time15 minutes
Cook Time25 minutes
Total Time40 minutes
Ingredients
16-18 cremini (or mini bella) mushrooms, cleaned and stems removed (save stems for filling)
1 tbsp olive oil
4 oz (½ block) plain cream cheese
2 oz parmesan cheese (Parmigiano Reggiano)
½ cup green onions, coarsely chopped
¼ cup fresh parsley (plus more for topping)
¼ cup panko breadcrumbs, divided
1 garlic clove
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and then drizzle olive oil evenly over the paper. Set aside.
Place the parmesan cheese block in a food processor fitted with a S-shaped blade and pulse until finely grated.
Then add the mushroom stems, cream cheese, green onions, parsley, garlic clove, two tablespoons of panko breadcrumbs, and salt and pepper to the food processor. Blend until creamy and smooth. Taste for additional salt and pepper.
Using a spoon, fill each mushroom cap with even amounts of the cream cheese mixture until the mixture is used up.
Place each stuffed mushroom on the baking sheet (filled-side up) and top with the remaining breadcrumbs.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender. Garnish with chopped parsley. Best served immediately (warm).
