Ingredients

• 500 grams Mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 Garlic cloves
• 1 Shallot
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 cup Gruyère cheese, grated
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish lightly with olive oil or cooking spray.

Step 2

Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and slice them evenly into approximately 1/4-inch thick pieces.

Step 3

Mince the garlic and finely chop the shallot.

Step 4

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and shallot, cooking until fragrant and softened, about 2 minutes.

Step 5

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet, stirring frequently. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until they release their liquid and become golden brown.

Step 6

Stir in the heavy cream, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cream slightly thickens.

Step 7

Transfer the mushroom mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 8

In a small bowl, combine the grated Parmesan, Gruyère, and panko breadcrumbs. Drizzle in the olive oil and mix thoroughly to form a crumbly topping.

Step 9

Sprinkle the cheese and breadcrumb mixture evenly over the mushrooms in the baking dish.

Step 10

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the topping is golden and bubbling.

Step 11

Optional: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 12

Serve hot as a delicious side dish or pair it with crusty bread for a comforting main course.
