Equipment
- mushroom brush optional
- paper towels optional
- chef's knife optional
- cutting board optional
- kitchen spoon
Ingredients
- 2 pints (approximately 15 mushrooms) cremini mushrooms (also known as baby bella) cleaned with stems and gills removed
- 1½ tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups prepared stuffing
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley optional as garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
- Place the cleaned and prepared mushrooms, open side down, onto a rack-lined baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove after 10 minutes, and flip the mushrooms open side up on the baking rack.
- Drizzle the mushrooms with olive oil and sprinkle each with salt and pepper.
- Place about ½ teaspoon of grated Parmesan in each mushroom cap. Add a heaping cookie scoop of prepared stuffing into each mushroom cap and press gently but firmly so the stuffing stays put.
- Top each stuffed mushroom with the remaining grated Parmesan cheese and return to the oven to bake for an additional 12-15 minutes.
- Remove and garnish with an additional drizzle of olive oil, and chopped fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
May be made in advance before baking. Store unbaked mushrooms in an airtight container in the refrigerator, overnight if needed.
Store any leftovers (after baking) in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
