Things You'll Need
24 large baby portobello mushrooms
3 tablespoons olive oil, for drizzling
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 ½ cups marinated artichoke hearts, finely chopped
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 cloves minced garlic
¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
¼ cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 ½ cups Asiago cheese, grated
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Farhenheit. Thoroughly wash and dry the mushrooms and remove their stems, and then place the mushrooms in a large bowl. Drizzle the olive oil on top, add in a dash of salt and pepper, and stir to coat. Place the mushrooms on a large baking sheet, round-side up, and bake for 12 minutes. Set aside while you make the filling.
Step 2
Drain the marinated artichokes and transfer them to a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to chop the artichokes into smaller pieces, then transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
Add in a dash of salt and pepper, the cayenne pepper, garlic, nutmeg, Italian seasoning, Parmesan cheese and parsley. Mix well to combine.
Step 4
Generously fill the mushroom caps, mounding the filling on top. Top the stuffed mushrooms with the shredded Asiago cheese and bake for 8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Serve warm.
