Cheese And Green Chile Stuffed Mushrooms

I love this recipe because it strikes the perfect balance of savory and spicy, and the textures are delightful—from the tender mushroom caps to the creamy cheese filling and the crispy Parmesan crust.

Ingredients
  

  • 30 medium raw button mushrooms about 1 1/2 pounds
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 1/4 cups shredded smoked cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup roasted green chile drained and diced
  • 2 tablespoons grated onion
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Mushrooms: Preheat your oven to 350°F and set out a 9×13-inch baking dish. Gently pop off the stems of the mushrooms and discard or save them for later use. Use a damp paper towel to wipe off any dirt from the mushroom tops—do not rinse them in water.
  • Prepare the Cheese Filling: In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, smoked cheddar cheese, diced green chile, onion, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Stir well until fully combined.
  • Stuff the Mushrooms: Use a spoon to fill each mushroom cap with the cheese mixture, packing it in tightly. Don’t worry if some filling overflows—just be mindful not to overstuff them.
  • Coat with Parmesan: Press the top of each cheese-stuffed mushroom into grated Parmesan cheese to form a crust, then place the mushrooms in the prepared baking dish, cheese-side-up. They can be snug in the dish, as they will shrink while baking.
  • Bake and Serve: Bake the stuffed mushrooms for 30-35 minutes, or until the tops are puffed and golden. Remove from the oven and serve warm.
  • Enjoy!
