Preparation for Garlic and Herb Stuffed Mushrooms (Gluten-Free)
Here are the steps to making these delectable garlic and herb-stuffed mushrooms (gluten-free):
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven Preheat the oven to 375 F (190 C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; this will keep the mushrooms from sticking and makes cleaning up a breeze.
Step 2: Clean and prepare mushrooms. Gently clean the mushrooms using a damp cloth or paper towel to remove dirt. Gently remove the stems, leaving a hollow cavity in the mushroom caps. The stems will be stacked later.
Step 3: Prepare the Filling Finely chopped mushroom stems. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and the chopped mushroom stems. Sauté for around 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant. In a medium mixing bowl, place the sautéed garlic mixture, cream cheese, gluten-free breadcrumbs, parsley, thyme, basil, aged parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine everything tightly.
Step 4: Stuff the mushrooms Scoop the filling into the mushroom caps while pressing slightly to make it stick. Place the stuffed mushroom onto the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the remaining olive oil on them so that they can add flavor and crispiness while cooking.
Step 5: Bake to Perfection Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the mushrooms are tender.
Step 6: Serve to Enjoy! For fancy occasions, serve warm garlic and herb stuffed mushrooms (gluten-free) as an appetizer, snack, or side dish. Garnish with some fresh parsley sprinkle for a colorful finish.
