Mushrooms

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Mushrooms

    Clean the large button mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove the stems carefully, creating a cavity for the filling.

  3. 3

    Melt the Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and set aside.

Seasoning & Filling

  1. 4

    Mix Seasonings

    In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 5

    Fill the Mushrooms

    Using a brush or spoon, coat the insides of the mushrooms with melted butter. Then, sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly inside each mushroom.

Topping

  1. 6

    Add Cheese and Breadcrumbs

    In a separate bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs. Sprinkle this mixture generously over each mushroom.

  2. 7

    Drizzle with Butter

    Drizzle any remaining melted butter over the topped mushrooms to ensure they bake beautifully.

Baking

  1. 8

    Bake the Mushrooms

    Place the prepared mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and crispy.

  2. 9

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
