Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms With Ground Chicken And Cheese Food

CHICKEN PARMESAN STUFFED MUSHROOMS WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place parchment paper on a baking sheet. Roast mushrooms for 10 minutes with top side up, and then 5 minutes on the other side (If your mushrooms are really large cook 13 minutes on the first side). Remove mushrooms from the oven, drain off any liquid from the pan and set aside. Now reduce the oven temperature to 425.
• Meanwhile, mix together the parmesan, parsley, onion, egg, garlic, onion powder, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
• Next, give the spinach a chop and separate it and sprinkle over the mixture in the bowl and mix together. Add the chicken and give it a good stir.
• Season the mushrooms with a sprinkle of salt and pepper and place them top-side down on the baking sheet. Form 6 evenish balls (depending on the variation of sizes of your mushrooms) and place them on each mushroom on the baking sheet. Press them down a little so they cover the mushroom, and so their tops are flat. Spray them with cooking spray. Cook for 15-20 minutes, top each mushroom with cheese, and continue cooking until chicken temperature reaches 165F and cheese has melted.
• Meanwhile, heat marinara on the stovetop. When mushrooms are cooked, remove from oven, top with marinara, and garnish with more Italian cheese, Parmesan cheese (if desired), & chopped parsley. Serve warm.

SAUSAGE-STUFFED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Using your hands, lightly rub each portobello mushroom with 2 teaspoons of olive oil.
• Cook the sausage in a medium skillet until browned, about 4 minutes. Add the onion, bell pepper, celery, and mushroom stems and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat.
• Transfer sausage-vegetable mixture to the bowl of a food processor. Add, 1/4 cup of the bread crumbs, 1/4 cup of Parmesan, 1/4 cup of parsley, the Essence, and the remaining 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Pulse until mixture is finely chopped and comes together slightly, about 30 seconds. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, add the egg, and stir until well combined.
• Divide the filling among the mushroom caps, about 1/2 cup for each mushroom. Place the filled mushrooms on a baking sheet. Combine remaining 1/4 cup of bread crumbs and 1/4 cup of Parmesan in a small mixing bowl. Divide the bread crumb mixture evenly among the tops of the mushrooms. Bake until golden brown on top and the mushrooms are tender, about 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with remaining tablespoon of parsley, drizzle with olive oil and vinegar and serve warm or at room temperature.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Season with salt and pepper, add red pepper flakes and saute quickly until lightly golden browned and chicken begins to stick to pan. Add wine, butter and reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking until light sauce develops (approximately 5 minutes), toss in herbs and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes then remove from heat.

Dice remaining 2 mushroom caps and reserved stems into 1/2 inch pieces; set aside (you should have about 3 cups).
• Brush both sides of caps with 2 tablespoons oil and sprinkle evenly with 1 teaspoons salt. Carefully place caps, grill-side up, on preheated baking sheet. Roast until mushrooms have released some of their juices and begin to brown edges, 8-12 minutes. Flip caps over and continue to roast until liquid has completely evaporated and caps are golden brown, 8-12 minutes longer. Remove mushrooms from oven and heat broiler,.
• Meanwhile, place spinach and water in large microwave-safe bowl. Cover bowl with large dinner plate (plate should completely cover bowl and not rest on spinach). Microwave on high until spinach is wilted and decreased in volume by half, 3-4 minutes. Using potholders, remove bowl from microwave and keep covered 1 minute. Carefully remove plate and transfer spinach to colander set in sink. Using back of rubber spatula, gently press spinach against colander to release excess liquid. Transfer spinach to cutting board and roughly chop. Return spinach to colander and press again. Set aside.
