This is so easy to make and it is surprisingly delicious, I bake these in my toaster oven about 4" from the top element for apprx 20 minutes. If you like pan fry for a few minutes to release some of the fluid from the mushroom, however it is not necessary to do this.

Tips:

  • Choose the right mushrooms: For this recipe, it's best to use large, firm mushrooms with intact stems, such as portobello or cremini mushrooms.
  • Clean the mushrooms properly: To clean the mushrooms, use a damp paper towel to wipe away any dirt or debris. Avoid rinsing them under water, as this can make them soggy.
  • Remove the stems: To remove the stems, simply twist them off with your hands. You can reserve the stems for use in other dishes, such as soups or stews.
  • Stuff the mushrooms: Be generous when stuffing the mushrooms, but don't overfill them, or the filling will spill out during baking.
  • Bake the mushrooms until tender: The mushrooms are done baking when they are tender and the filling is hot and bubbly.
