Ingredients

• 4 large caps Portabella mushrooms
• 2 cups (shredded) Cooked chicken breast
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 2 cups (fresh) Spinach
• 4 ounces (softened) Cream cheese
• 1 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup (shredded) Mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Clean the portabella mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and scoop out the gills with a spoon to create a hollow space for stuffing.

Step 3

Brush both sides of the mushroom caps with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place them on a baking sheet, hollow side up.

Step 4

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 5

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cooked spinach, cream cheese, 0.5 cup of Parmesan cheese, 0.5 cup of mozzarella cheese, breadcrumbs, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until well combined.

Step 7

Stuff each mushroom cap with the chicken mixture, pressing it down gently to fill the cavity.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese evenly over the stuffed mushrooms.

Step 9

Place the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is melted and golden on top.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
