Make these savory stuffed mushrooms for an easy party appetizer. The filling uses breadcrumbs, cheese, and herbs for a flavorful bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb white button mushrooms, stems removed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small shallot, finely minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. Wipe the mushroom caps clean with a damp cloth. Gently press down on the center of each cap to create a small well for the filling.
  3. Finely chop the removed mushroom stems.
  4. Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and minced shallot. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant. Remove from heat and transfer the mixture to a medium bowl.
  6. Add the panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Mix well to combine.
  7. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture is evenly moistened.
  8. Spoon the savory mushroom filling evenly into each mushroom cap, mounding it slightly.
  9. Place the filled mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet.
  10. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the filling is golden brown and the mushrooms are tender.

Notes

  • You can prepare the filling up to one day ahead. Store it covered in the refrigerator. Stuff the mushrooms just before baking.
  • For a crispier top, switch the oven to broil for the last 1-2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
  • If you want a richer flavor, substitute 1/4 cup of the breadcrumbs with finely chopped cooked sausage or crab meat.
