CHICKEN AND ORZO STUFFED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS
Quite some time ago I tried an incredible stuffed mushroom dish at an Italian restaurant. This version takes advantage of precooked chicken for faster prep. There really is no substitute for the demi glace, although homemade is an option, I purchased mine at a local kitchen store. The quantity below will full two large mushroom caps or four medium mushroom caps.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium high heat and cook bell pepper until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic during the last 30 seconds and sauté until fragrant. Stir in orzo and add 1 cup chicken broth, demi glace, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and chicken. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup chicken broth. Cook and stir until liquid is absorbed and add the next 1/2 cup chicken broth, about 5 minutes. Repeat until orzo pasta is tender - you may not need all the chicken broth. Add spinach during the last minute of cooking.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Place mushroom caps on a rimmed baking sheet. Add equal amounts of orzo filling to the mushroom caps. Top with smoked mozzarella cheese and broil until golden brown and cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes.

PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS STUFFED WITH CHICKEN
Steps:
- Heat barbecue grill until very hot. Prepare garlic for roasting be removing outer, papery layer. Slice off top of garlic so that cloves are exposed. Drizzle with 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil, wrap tightly in double thick square of foil and place directly on rack of hot grill. Repeat this same procedure with onions (warp individually).
- Rub portobello caps, stems, criminis with olive oil, salt and pepper, add to grill with onions and garlic. Remove portobello caps, stems, and criminis from grille after lightly browned (do not overcook, approximately 3 to 5 minutes on each side). Cut portobello stems and criminis into 1/4-inch strips, set aside, keep warm while cooking chicken.
- On the stove (or in a pan on the barbecue grill), heat a saute pan until hot, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, add the roasted garlic and saute for 15 seconds (do not brown). Reduce heat to medium high, toss chicken strips in flour, and add to garlic mixture. Season with salt and pepper, add red pepper flakes and saute quickly until lightly golden browned and chicken begins to stick to pan. Add wine, butter and reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking until light sauce develops (approximately 5 minutes), toss in herbs and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes then remove from heat.
- To assemble, place mushroom caps on plates, sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese. Gently toss together chicken strips, pepper strips, onion strips, and mushroom strips and pile on portobello cap. Add 2 to 3 Parmesan curls, decorate with a basil sprig and serve warm.

Steps:
- Season chicken with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add chicken to the skillet in a single layer and cook until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 4-5 minutes per side; set aside. Add mushrooms and shallot, and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in garlic and thyme until fragrant, about 1 minute. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Stir in chicken stock and Dijon, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Stir in orzo; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until pasta is cooked through, about 6 minutes. Stir in spinach, Parmesan and heavy cream until the spinach has wilted, about 3 minutes. Return chicken to the skillet. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley.
Tips:
- Choose large portobello mushrooms: Portobello mushrooms are the perfect size for stuffing, and they have a meaty texture that can stand up to the other ingredients in this dish.
- Clean the mushrooms thoroughly: Use a damp cloth or paper towel to wipe the mushrooms clean. Remove the stems and scrape out the gills with a spoon.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for zucchini, carrots, and celery, but you can use any vegetables you like. Some other good options include bell peppers, onions, and spinach.
- Cook the chicken and vegetables until they are tender: This will ensure that the filling is cooked through and that the flavors have had a chance to meld together.
- Use a flavorful cheese: The cheese you use will add a lot of flavor to the dish, so choose one that you enjoy. Some good options include Parmesan, mozzarella, and cheddar.
- Bake the mushrooms until they are tender: This will take about 20 minutes. The mushrooms should be soft and the cheese should be melted and bubbly.
- Serve the mushrooms immediately: These mushrooms are best served hot and fresh out of the oven.

These Chicken and Orzo Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms are a delicious and satisfying meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting way to cook portobello mushrooms, give this recipe a try.
