STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Stir the bread crumbs, Pecorino Romano, garlic, parsley, mint, salt and pepper, to taste, and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium bowl to blend.
• Drizzle a heavy large baking sheet with about 1 tablespoon olive oil, to coat. Spoon the filling into the mushroom cavities and arrange on the baking sheet, cavity side up. Drizzle remaining oil over the filling in each mushroom. Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is heated through and golden on top, about 25 minutes. Serve.

STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oil to 300 degrees F in a deep pot or deep-fryer.
• Remove the stems from the mushrooms and then stuff each mushroom with 1 to 1 1/2 ounces of sausage.
• Create a standard breading station in 3 separate 8-by-8-inch pans: Combine the flour, 1 tablespoon salt and 2 teaspoons pepper into the first pan. Whisk together the eggs and the milk in the second pan. Place the breadcrumbs in the third pan.
• Dredge each of the stuffed mushrooms in the flour, coat with the egg wash and then with the breadcrumbs.
• Fry the mushrooms, in batches if necessary, until golden brown and the sausage is fully cooked, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Heat the Tomato Sauce in a saucepan. Spoon 1/4 cup sauce onto the center of each plate. Arrange 3 fried mushrooms on top of the sauce. Garnish each plate with chopped parsley and Parmesan.
• Combine the whole tomatoes and their liquid, the olive oil, onion, basil, oregano, salt, pepper and 4 cloves garlic in a large bowl or 2-gallon container and puree with an immersion blender until smooth.
• Heat a large saute pan over high heat until it begins to smoke. Reduce the heat to medium, add the grapeseed oil and remaining 4 cloves garlic and quickly saute. Add the diced tomatoes and saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the pureed tomato sauce and bring to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, remove from the heat. Bring back to a simmer when you are ready to plate. Yield: 6 servings

KETO MUSHROOM-STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Set an oven rack in the center of the oven.
• Place chicken breasts between 2 sheets of heavy plastic on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound with the smooth side of a meat mallet to 1/2-inch thickness.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Add garlic and thyme and cook until mushrooms are tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in cream cheese and season with salt. Cook and stir until cream cheese has completely melted. Remove from heat.
• Spoon mushroom-cream mixture onto the chicken breasts. Wrap chicken around the mixture and secure with toothpicks. Set chicken bundles, seam-side up, in a baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and brush with Dijon mustard. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and return to the oven.
• Continue baking until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Discard toothpicks before serving.

BRANZINO WITH ROASTED TOMATOES, OLIVE OIL POACHED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• For the mushrooms: In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add the olive oil to the pan and allow to heat until the verge of smoking. Then reduce the heat to medium and add the mushrooms. Allow the mushrooms to cook for 5 to 6 minutes, and then remove.
• For the fish: In a nonstick saute pan, add the grapeseed oil over medium heat for 1 minute. Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper, and then add the fish to the pan, flesh-side down. Cook for 2 minutes, flip the fish and turn the heat off. Allow the fish to finish with the residual heat for 2 minutes. Then remove the fish and allow to rest until serving.
• For the sauce: In the same pan, return to medium-high heat. Sprinkle the tomatoes with salt and pepper, add to the pan and cook for 1 minute. Then flip the tomatoes and add the wine to deglaze the pan. Next, add the lemon juice, parsley and garlic. Remove the tomatoes and arrange flat on a serving plate, end to end. Allow the sauce to reduce by half, yielding 1/2 cup. Once reduced, turn the heat off and stir in the butter to finish the sauce. Then place the fish over the tomatoes, arrange the mushrooms and spoon the sauce over the fish. Serve.

SEAFOOD STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. BBQ or boil all seafood: lobster 5 to 10 minutes, shrimp 3 to 5 minutes, crab 3 minutes. Remove shells from the seafood and chop. Chop all seafood and set aside. Mix together Ritz cracker crumbs, Hungarian pepper, salt and pepper and set aside. Carefully remove the stems from the mushrooms, chop finely and set aside. Add olive oil to a saute pan and add garlic. After 1 minute, add the chopped green pepper and onion. Continue to saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Add chopped mushroom stems and saute until cooked. Saute over medium heat until the mixture is reduced. Add the seafood mixture and mix well. Remove from the heat and stir in the Ritz crumb mixture. In a separate bowl blend the egg and water. Add the egg/water mixture to the pan and mix well. Stuff each mushroom cap with a small portion of the seafood mixture. Brush with melted butter and top with cheese. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

PEPPERCORN DEMI NY STRIP STEAK WITH OLIVE OIL POACHED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• For the mushrooms: In a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the oil to a light simmer and reduce to medium heat. Then add the mushrooms and cook until the exterior of the mushrooms softens, about 4 minutes. Remove and hold on a plate until serving.
• For the steak: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Warm the prepared potatoes and hold warm. Heat a thick-bottomed pan until the verge of smoking over medium-high heat. Then sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper on both sides. Apply the steak to the heated pan. Sear on the first side for 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, and then flip and repeat the process on the second side. This will result in a medium-rare steak. Finish the oven for higher temperatures.
• Once the steak is cooked, remove from the pan to rest, and then add the peppercorns to the pan and warm for 20 seconds. Then add the demi-glace and garlic, warming for 3 minutes. Once warmed, remove from the heat and stir in the butter until smooth.
• To serve, place a quarter of the mashed potatoes in the center of a plate, then place the cooked steak and drizzle with 1/4 cup sauce. Finish with a quarter of the mushrooms and 5 pieces of poached asparagus and serve.
