A quick and easy appetizer featuring white button mushrooms stuffed with a savory mixture of garlic, Parmesan cheese, and breadcrumbs, ready in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 large white button mushroom caps, cleaned and stems removed
  • 3 to 4 garlic cloves, minced finely
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Gently clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems carefully and chop them finely. Set the caps aside on your baking sheet, gill side up.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Toss in the chopped mushroom stems and minced garlic. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened and fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed stems and garlic with the Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, melted butter, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir until well incorporated and sticky enough to hold together.
  5. Spoon the filling into each mushroom cap, pressing lightly to pack it in without overfilling.
  6. Place the tray in the oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the mushrooms are tender.
  7. Let the mushrooms cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Sprinkle with a little extra fresh parsley for color and freshness.

Notes

Do not soak mushrooms in water; wipe them clean with a damp cloth to avoid sogginess. Cook mushroom stems until most moisture evaporates to prevent soggy filling. Use freshly grated Parmesan for better melting and flavor. For a smoky twist, add a pinch of smoked paprika to the filling. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat gently in the oven to maintain crispness.
