1
Prepare the Mushrooms
Clean the Portobello mushrooms using a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Remove the stems and scrape out the gills using a spoon for a cleaner taste.
2
Marinate the Mushrooms
In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Brush this mixture over both sides of each mushroom cap. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.
3
Prepare for Baking
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
4
Spread Pesto
Spread about 2 tablespoons of basil pesto evenly on the top side of each mushroom cap.
5
Add Parmesan
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese generously over the pesto on each mushroom.
6
Bake the Mushrooms
Place the mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet, pesto side up. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is melted and golden.
7
Serve
Remove the mushrooms from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes. Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish.
