Ingredients

• 12 pieces Large button mushrooms (stems removed)
• 0.5 cups Roasted red peppers (finely chopped)
• 0.75 cups Manchego cheese (shredded)
• 0.25 cups Breadcrumbs
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C), and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and set the caps on the prepared baking sheet, gill-side up.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the roasted red peppers, shredded manchego cheese, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped parsley, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 4

Spoon the filling into each mushroom cap, pressing gently to create a mounded top.

Step 5

Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the stuffed mushrooms to help them brown in the oven.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender, and the filling is golden and bubbly.

Step 7

Remove the stuffed mushrooms from the oven and allow them to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a serving platter.

Step 8

Optional: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the mushrooms for added flavor before serving.
