Prepare Mushrooms:
- Begin by washing the mushrooms thoroughly and then delicately scoop out the stems, ensuring not to damage the caps.
-
Prepare Stuffing:
- Chop the mushroom stems finely, similar to how you would chop celery and onion.
-
SautΓ© Ingredients:
- In a large pan, melt butter over low-medium heat.
- Add all ingredients EXCEPT THE BREAD CRUMBS to the butter.
- Turn the heat to medium and sautΓ© the mixture for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together perfectly.

Add Bread Crumbs:
- Once the sautΓ©ed mixture is aromatic and well-cooked, add the bread crumbs, stirring until evenly combined.
- Remove the pan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool for about 20 minutes, allowing it to slightly firm up.
-
Preheat Oven:
- While the stuffing mixture cools, preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C), ensuring it reaches the desired temperature before baking.
-
Stuff the Mushrooms:
- Carefully spoon the prepared stuffing mixture into each mushroom cap, ensuring it’s heaping quite a bit to create a delightful presentation and flavor burst.
-
Bake:
- Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet, there’s no need to grease it thanks to the natural moisture of the mushrooms.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake at 400Β°F (200Β°C) for approximately 20 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender and the stuffing is lightly golden.

Serve and Enjoy!
