How this recipe came to be:
I've said it before, and I'll say it again...sometimes my best recipe ideas come from wandering aimlessly around the grocery store with nothing specific in mind. Until, WHAM!
And so it is with this fast, tasty, and easy dinner recipe for stuffed portobellos.
Low carb and delicious!!
If you love mushrooms and are eating a low-carb and/or a keto diet plan (or even if you're not), you're going to love this super quick and delicious dish!
Not doing keto? No problem!!
Even though I came up with this recipe because we've been trying hard to follow the keto eating plan here are our house, this is by no means strictly for keto eaters.
It is for anyone who loves good food, especially those of you who love good food that can be made in a hurry!
However, if you ARE trying to follow a keto/low carb eating plan, here are a few sites from around the web that I think you'll enjoy:
Why is this recipe so speedy?
Because I've used store-bought rotisserie chicken so dinner will be on the table in less than 30 minutes! YAY!
Can these be frozen after baking:
Honestly, I wouldn't recommend it.
Once thawed, the mushroom caps will get soggy and watery. Not at all appetizing.
However, you can make the chicken filling in advance and store it in the freezer (in an air-tight container), if needed, for up to two months.
How long will chicken Parmesan stuffed portobellos keep in the fridge?
Store them in an air-tight container for up to 4 days.
To reheat, pop them in a preheated 350-degree F oven (uncovered) until hot (approximately 10 minutes).
The step-by-step photo instructions for making chicken Parmesan stuffed portobellos:
- Remove and shred approximately 2 cups of chicken from the rotisserie chicken (reserve the remaining chicken for another use) and place in a medium bowl.
- Add the drained can of fire-roasted tomatoes to the chicken.
- Add the basil, oregano, garlic, shredded Parmesan, cream cheese, salt, and pepper to the chicken.
- Stir well to combine.
- Use a spoon to gently clean out the gills and stem from the portabello mushrooms.
- Add two slices of provolone cheese to each mushroom and top each with ⅓ of the chicken mixture.
- Top each with shredded mozzarella cheese and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 20-25 minutes.

Can you use ground chicken??
Renée says
Hi, Brittany!
Sure! Brown the chicken well in a skillet first, until it is no longer pink (draining off the juices if needed), and then continue with the recipe as written.
Have a great day!
