Ingredients
  

  • 20 to 24 medium-large cremini mushrooms (stemmed. See note #1.)
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup pecorino or parmesan cheese grated
  • ½ cup ricotta cheese
  • ½ large shallot minced
  • ½ cup parsley finely chopped (plus more for garnish)
  • ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes about 4-5, chopped
  • ¼ cup basil finely chopped
  • 3-4 garlic cloves minced
  • Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt plus more for sprinkling
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Pinch red pepper flakes optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C)
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the panko, pecorino cheese, ricotta, herbs, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, shallots, salt and several grinds of pepper.
  • Place the mushrooms, cavity side up, onto the baking sheet. Drizzle the mushrooms with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
  • Spoon the filling into the mushrooms, drizzle with more olive oil and bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden brown, about 18 to 22 minutes.
  • Season to taste, garnish with parsley and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, if desired.
  • Serve Sun-dried tomato stuffed mushrooms warm as an appetizer, hors d'Oeuvres, side or snack and enjoy!

Notes

  • Mushroom Options: Cremini, button, or portobello. Larger mushrooms hold more filling. Adjust baking time accordingly.
  • Storage: Refrigerate in an airtight container for 3–4 days.
  • Reheating: Oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10–15 minutes or microwave briefly. Mushrooms may soften slightly but stay delicious.
  • Serving suggestions: Sprinkle extra herbs or a little more cheese on top for presentation.
