Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Portobello mushrooms
- 4 large, stems removed and gills scraped
- Zucchini
- 1 medium, grated
- Garlic
- 2 cloves, minced
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup, preferably whole wheat
- Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup, grated
- Fresh basil
- 1/4 cup, chopped
- Salt
- to taste
- Pepper
- to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the portobello mushrooms by carefully removing the stems and using a spoon to scrape out the dark gills, which can give a bitter taste.
- In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the grated zucchini and minced garlic, cooking until the zucchini is tender and any moisture has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped basil. Mix thoroughly until well-combined.
- Spoon the zucchini mixture evenly into the cavities of the portobello mushrooms, pressing gently to pack the filling.
- Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden brown and crispy on top.
- Serve hot, garnished with additional fresh basil if desired, and enjoy the burst of flavors!
