Goat Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms
Beware! These will vanish quickly.
Servings: 4 servings (2 stuffed mushrooms per serving)
Ingredients
- 8 large fresh mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- ¼ cup finely chopped onion
- 4 ounces crumbled goat cheese
- ½ teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 dash pepper
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425° F.
- Separate the mushroom stems from the caps. Finely chop the stems (cutting and discarding the rough ends) and set aside the caps.
- In a small skillet, melt the butter over low heat and sauté the onion in the butter until soft. Add the mushroom stems and cook until the liquid evaporates (about 5 min). Remove from heat and add the cheese, mixing well. Stir in the seasonings.
- Brush the mushroom caps lightly with olive oil. Fill each with the cheese mixture. Place on a baking sheet and brush with the remaining olive oil.
- Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly browned. Serve hot.
Notes
- Substitute feta cheese for the goat cheese if you wish.
