Mushrooms

Lemon Caper Sauce

Method

Preparation of Mushrooms

  1. 1

    Clean the Mushrooms

    Gently wipe the large white mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Remove the stems and set aside.

  2. 2

    Preheat Oven

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

Making the Stuffing

  1. 3

    Sauté Onion and Garlic

    In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Mix Stuffing Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the sautéed onion and garlic with breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Stuffing the Mushrooms

  1. 5

    Stuff the Mushrooms

    Using a spoon, generously fill each mushroom cap with the stuffing mixture, pressing down lightly to ensure it holds.

Baking the Mushrooms

  1. 6

    Bake the Stuffed Mushrooms

    Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet and place in the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.

Making the Lemon Caper Sauce

  1. 7

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Stir in the lemon juice and capers. Allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes, then season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve the Mushrooms

    Once the mushrooms are baked, remove them from the oven and drizzle the lemon caper sauce over the top. Serve warm and enjoy!
