Stuffed Baby Portabello Mushrooms
- 1 packages baby portabello mushrooms
- 1 large garlic clove
- 2 slice red onion diced
- 5 piece sun dried tomatoes diced (not oil packed)
- 5 stems from the mushrooms diced
- 1/4 tsp each herb - dried parsley, thyme, dill - whichever you like is fine.
- 4 slice stale dry bread
- 1 balsamic vinegar (2-3 tablespoons)
- 3/4 cup chicken broth
- 1 olive oil, extra virgin
- 1 grated cheese - pecorino romano, or anything you like!
- 1 salt & pepper
- Set oven to 350.
- Butter an 8 x 8 baking dish and set aside.
- Pull off stubs (do not discard) and wash cap tops under cold running water.
- Lay them top side down on paper towels to dry while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Place the sun dried tomatoes in a bowl of very hot water - not boiling.
- Smash and finely dice a large clove of garlic.
- Take half a red onion and slice off 2 - 1/4" slices & dice them.
- Take 4-5 larger mushroom stems and finely dice.
- Lastly dice the tomatoes.
- BTW, if you threw out the stems (like I have) take 1, or 2, of the smallest mushrooms and use them as a replacement.
- Over a medium heat in a non-stick pan melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Once the butter is frothy add onions & cook about 1 minute.
- Add diced garlic, sun dried tomatoes and mushrooms.
- If it seems dry, add another pat of butter.
- Add about a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil.
- Cook for about a minute then add herbs, salt & pepper.
- While the onions are cooking place the stale bread into a gallon plastic bag and break it up into small pieces.
- Don't worry if there are bread crumbs - it's all going into the filling.
- When the onions look translucent put in a splash of balsamic vinegar and very soon it will evaporate.
- Take off the heat.
- Throw in the bread, stir well to incorporate and add up to 3/4 of a cup of chicken broth.
- There should be just enough to moisten the bread not make soup.
- Let cool.
- In a bowl add 2-3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and dip only the tops of the mushrooms making sure to get the sides.
- Add more oil as you need to.
- Place caps in baking dish and start to mound filling into each cap using all the stuffing.
- Finish with grated cheese.
- Bake about 30 minutes.
