Ingredients

  • 2 pounds large (900 g) white mushrooms about 16-20 mushrooms
  • 16 ounces (900 g) ground Italian sausage
  • 1 small yellow onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 ounces (113 g) cream cheese
  • ¼ cup (21 g) parmesan cheese
  • ¼ cup (30 g) panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons (28 g) butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons fresh flat leaf parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  • Prep the mushrooms: clean the mushrooms under running water with your hands, and pat them dry with paper towels. With a paring knife, remove the stems (but save them for another dish!) and spread out the mushroom caps on a parchment-lined baking sheet stem side up.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F/190°C.
  • In a skillet, cook the sausage breaking it apart with a wooden spoon until it’s no longer pink. If there’s a lot of grease in the pan, drain it reserving about 1 tablespoon.
  • Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes or until the onion is translucent.
  • Add the garlic, and cook for 30 seconds. Remove from heat.
  • Place the sausage in a bowl, add cream cheese and parmesan. Stir to combine.
  • Divide the sausage mixture between the mushrooms.
  • In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with butter, and sprinkle over the mushrooms.
  • Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until the mushrooms are cooked through and the stuffing is browned and crusty.
  • Garnish with parsley and serve on a platter.

Notes

  1. Italian pork sausage can be substituted with any ground meat.
