Stuffed Mushrooms
From Auntie's Cook Book
Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 1 1/2 lb. baby mushrooms, rinsed
- 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan, plus more for topping
- 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley, plus more for serving
- 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh thyme
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°. Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. Remove stems from mushrooms and finely chop. Arrange caps on prepared sheet.
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add chopped mushrooms stems and cook, stirring frequently, until most of the moisture is evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Add bread crumbs and cook, stirring frequently, until slightly toasted, about 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Let cool slightly.
- Transfer bread crumb mixture to a large bowl. Add Parmesan, cream cheese, parsley, and thyme; season with salt and pepper and stir to combine. Fill mushroom caps with filling and sprinkle with more Parmesan.
- Bake stuffed mushrooms until softened and the tops are golden, about 20 minutes.
- Transfer stuffed mushrooms to a platter. Top with parsley.
