Ingredients

• 16 pieces large button mushrooms
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 piece jalapeño, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and set them aside for later use. Arrange the mushroom caps rounded side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Finely chop the mushroom stems and set aside.

Step 4

In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems, jalapeño, and garlic, and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 5

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked mushroom stem mixture, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, parsley, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the filling is uniform.

Step 6

Fill each mushroom cap with the prepared stuffing, packing it in gently but generously.

Step 7

Drizzle the stuffed mushrooms with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 8

Bake the mushrooms in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Garnish with additional chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
