Mushroom Stuffed Onions Food

CARAMELIZED ONION STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Peel the onions and slice them in half from root to stem. Notch out the root and slice the onions into 1/4" slices. When slicing, slice in the direction from root to stem.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter then add onions. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. You may need to lower heat if onions are browning too quickly. After onions are lightly browned and a fond develops on the bottom of the pan, reduce heat to low and continue cooking for another 10 minutes. The fond is the brown coating on the bottom of the pan from the sugar drawn out from the onions.
• Add balsamic vinegar to deglaze pan, scraping up the fond as it loosens.
• Cook the mixture for another 3 - 5 minutes, scraping and deglazing skillet. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Place the mushrooms bottom side up in a baking dish and drizzle with the olive oil.
• Stuff the cavity of each mushroom with the caramelized onions, then sprinkle tops with cheese.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.

FRENCH ONION DIP-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, onion slices, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened, about 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until golden, about 10 minutes more.
• Using a blender, puree together 1/4 cup of the caramelized onions, sour cream, soy sauce and, if necessary, 1 tablespoon water for a dip consistency. Transfer to a bowl. Stir in 1/4 cup of the caramelized onions and season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, arrange the mushroom caps on the lined baking sheet, stem-sides down, and bake, 10 minutes. Flip the mushroom caps over, draining any liquid, and mound the dip into each one. Sprinkle evenly with the cereal crumbs and bake until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden, about 20 minutes. Top with the remaining caramelized onions and serve.

EASY CHEESE STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375° degrees Fahrenheit.
• Using a damp paper towel, brush all dirt from the mushrooms. Remove the mushroom stems. Cut away and discard any hard bits of the stems, then finely mince them.
• Add the mushroom caps to a rimmed baking sheet or sizeable oven-safe skillet that fits the mushrooms in one layer. Toss them with a tablespoon of olive oil and lightly season with fresh ground black pepper. Arrange them cavity-side-up so that they are ready to be stuffed.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, chopped mushroom stalks, and a pinch of salt. Cook, occasionally stirring, until the onions smell sweet and are soft, about 5 minutes.
• Add the garlic and herbs, then cook for another minute or until the garlic is fragrant. Before the garlic begins to brown, scrape the mixture into a bowl and set it aside to cool.
• Add the breadcrumbs to the same skillet. Place it over medium-low heat, and then cook, stirring, until they are lightly toasted; about one minute.
• Stir the cheese into the onions and garlic mixture, then divide the filling between the mushroom caps. Sprinkle the toasted breadcrumbs on top.
• Bake the mushrooms until the cheese has melted and the mushrooms have softened; 15 to 20 minutes.
• Serve with chopped fresh herbs and freshly ground black pepper on top.

Sprinkle breadcrumbs inside the mushroom caps; fill with the onion mixture, then sprinkle with 1 cup shredded gruyere and 2 tablespoons grated parmesan.
• Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then remove from the baking sheet. Top with parsley.

Take a plastic storage back and place the bacon mixture into it, and push all the mixture down into one corner. Snip the corner of the bag to allow the bacon mixture to be pushed through. Squeeze the bacon mixture in to each of the mushroom caps, until all caps are filled.
• Place the mushrooms in the oven for 10-12 minutes until bacon mixture is light brown. Enjoy!

MUSHROOM STUFFED ONIONS--MIDWEST

Steps:

• To make onion cases: peel 6 medium or 3 large onions. Boil/simmer until tender.
• Remove from water and cool. If using medium onions, cut a slice from the top and hollow out, leaving a 3/4-inch shell. (Hint: use kitchen scissors). If using large onions, cut in half (doesn't matter whether horizontally or vertically). Remove the centers, leaving a 3/4-inch shell. Chop the centers.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Sauté the chopped mushrooms in 2 T of the butter until tender; sprinkle with 1 T of the flour and mix. Stir in 1/3 C milk or cream and stir until thickened. Season with salt and lots of paprika. Fill the onion cases with mushroom mixture.
• Make white sauce by melting 2 T butter; stir in 2 T flour until blended. Slowly stir in 1 C milk or cream; stir until thickened. Add the chopped onion centers and any of the mushroom mixture that didn't fit in the onion cases. Season the sauce well with salt, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce or sherry.
• Pour the seasoned white sauce into a shallow baking dish. Add the stuffed onion cases, stuffing side up. The tops may be sprinkled with bread crumbs dotted with butter or sprinkled with cheese -- or not.
• Bake the onions until they are well-heated. Garnish with parsley. They may be served on toast.
• For vegetarian do not use Worcestershire sauce option use the sherry or use a vegetarian Worcestershire sauce.
