Ingredients

• 12 pieces Large button mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Fresh breadcrumbs
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
• 0.5 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and set the mushroom caps aside. Finely chop the stems.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and minced garlic, cooking for 2-3 minutes until soft and fragrant.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked mushroom stems and garlic, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, cream cheese, parsley, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Mix thoroughly to create a cohesive stuffing.

Step 5

Using a small spoon, fill each mushroom cap with the stuffing mixture, pressing gently to ensure it's packed in.

Step 6

Place the stuffed mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the tops with the melted butter and a small squeeze of lemon juice, if desired, for extra flavor.

Step 7

Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the stuffing is golden brown on top.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired.
