Ingredients

  • 3/4- 1 lb. Mild Italian sausage I recommend getting it fresh from the butcher
  • 16 white mushrooms, washed and stems removed
  • 3 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 4 green onions, minced
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. thyme
  • 2 tbsp. parsley, minced plus more for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 325°
  • In a pan brown the sausage, drain. Add a little olive oil to the pan, then the garlic, green onions, salt, pepper, and thyme. Cook for 2 minutes then set aside.
  • Remove the mushroom stems, wash the mushrooms, and pat dry.
  • To the sausage mixture add the parmesan cheese, parsley, and 3/4 of the breadcrumbs. Stir well to combine.
  • Stuff each mushroom and fill as much as possible.
  • Place in a 13x9 baking dish. Then top each mushroom with the remaining breadcrumbs.
  • Drizzle on some olive oil and bake, 45-50 minutes or until golden and the top is crusty.
  • Let cool and serve with a extra sprinkle of parsley.
