CHEESE AND SPINACH STUFFED PORTOBELLOS



Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Portobellos image

"Here we take the elements of a vegetarian lasagna filling-ricotta, spinach and Parmesan cheese-and nestle them into roasted portobello mushroom caps. The recipe works best with very large portobello caps. . . Serve with a tossed salad and a whole-wheat dinner roll or spaghetti tossed with marinara sauce." Note: After making this dish, I have changed the recipe slightly from the original (increased it to 6 mushrooms from 4, added garlic and chives, then mozarella on top instead of parmesan. If you like spicy stuff, I would recommend adding a few crushed red pepper flakes to the marinara sauce. Recipe from Eating Well.

Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms With Spinach and Goat Cheese image

Provided by Chef mariajane

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h

Yield 8 stuffed mushrooms

Number Of Ingredients 16

10 portabella mushrooms, each 4-5 inches, stems removed and reserved, caps wiped clean
4 tablespoons olive oil
salt
12 ounces Baby Spinach (about 10 cups)
2 tablespoons water
2 slices white bread, torn into quarters
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium onions, diced small (about 2 cups)
4 medium garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup dry sherry
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, chopped
4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled (about 1 cup)
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup walnuts, toasted and roughly chopped
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to upper middle portion, place rimmed baking sheet on rack, and heat oven to 400°F Using sharp knife, cut 1/4 inch slits, spaced 1/2 inch apart, in crosshatch pattern on surface(non-grill side) of 8 mushrooms. Dice remaining 2 mushroom caps and reserved stems into 1/2 inch pieces; set aside (you should have about 3 cups).
  • Brush both sides of caps with 2 tablespoons oil and sprinkle evenly with 1 teaspoons salt. Carefully place caps, grill-side up, on preheated baking sheet. Roast until mushrooms have released some of their juices and begin to brown edges, 8-12 minutes. Flip caps over and continue to roast until liquid has completely evaporated and caps are golden brown, 8-12 minutes longer. Remove mushrooms from oven and heat broiler,.
  • Meanwhile, place spinach and water in large microwave-safe bowl. Cover bowl with large dinner plate (plate should completely cover bowl and not rest on spinach). Microwave on high until spinach is wilted and decreased in volume by half, 3-4 minutes. Using potholders, remove bowl from microwave and keep covered 1 minute. Carefully remove plate and transfer spinach to colander set in sink. Using back of rubber spatula, gently press spinach against colander to release excess liquid. Transfer spinach to cutting board and roughly chop. Return spinach to colander and press again. Set aside.
  • Pulse bread in food processor until coarsely ground, about 16 one-second pulses (you should have about 1 1/2 cups). Heat 1 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoons butter in 12-inch skillet over medium heat until butter is melted. Add bread crumbs and 1/4 teaspoons salt; cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, 5-8 minutes. Transfer crumbs to small bowl and wipe out skillet with paper towel.
  • Return now-empty skillet to medium-high heat, Add remaining tablespoons oil and heat until smoking. Add chopped mushrooms and cook without stirring for 2 minutes. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 4-6 minutes longer. Transfer to medium bowl.
  • Add remaining tablespoons butter and onions to skillet; cook stirring occasionally, until onions are light brown, 5-6 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in sherry and cook until almost no liquid remains, 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in reserved mushrooms, spinach, thyme, goat cheese, cream and walnuts. Continue cooking until cheese is melted and vegetables are well coated, 1-2 minutes. Remove from pan, stir in lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Flip caps, grill side up and distribute filling evenly among mushroom caps; top each with 2 Tbsp bread crumb mixture. Broil mushrooms until crumbs are golden brown, 1-2 minutes. Serve immediately.
  • NOTE: For some reason, I cannot get the recipe to show the mushrooms as Portobellos - only portabella!

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 19

Marinated mushrooms
1 cup olive oil
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1/4 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup Marsala (optional)
4 large fresh thyme sprigs
6 large portobello mushrooms
Filling:
1 10-ounce package frozen spinach
1 pound button mushrooms
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped sweet onion (such as Maui or Vidalia)
3 garlic cloves, pressed
1/4 cup plus 6 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup unseasoned dry breadcrumbs
1 5-ounce package soft fresh goat cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • For marinated mushrooms:
  • Whisk first 6 ingredients and Marsala, if desired, in medium bowl for marinade. Stir in thyme sprigs. Cut stems from mushrooms and place stems in processor. Arrange mushrooms, gill side up, in 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish. Pour marinade over mushrooms and marinate 4 hours, turning to coat occasionally.
  • For filling:
  • Cook spinach according to package directions. Drain; cool. Using hands, squeeze excess water from spinach. Place in small bowl.
  • Add half of button mushrooms to processor with portobello mushroom stems. Using on/off turns, process until coarsely chopped. Transfer to medium bowl and repeat with remaining mushrooms. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Add onion; sauté until beginning to brown, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and stir 30 seconds. Add chopped mushrooms, sprinkle with salt, and increase heat to high. Cook until almost all liquid evaporates, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Season mushroom mixture with salt and pepper. Transfer to large bowl; cool to room temperature.
  • Add spinach, 1/4 cup Parmesan, and breadcrumbs to mushroom mixture; toss to distribute evenly. Add goat cheese and toss gently to distribute evenly. Season filling to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover filling and let stand at room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Transfer marinated mushrooms, with some marinade still clinging, to rimmed baking sheet, gill side down. Roast until beginning to soften, about 15 minutes. Turn mushrooms over. Divide filling among mushrooms. Sprinkle remaining 6 tablespoons Parmesan cheese over and bake until heated through and cheese begins to brown, about 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Portobello Mushrooms: Select large, firm, and evenly shaped portobello mushrooms with intact gills. Avoid mushrooms with bruises or blemishes.
  • Clean and Prep the Mushrooms: Gently wipe the mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt or debris. Remove the stems by twisting them off or using a spoon to scoop them out.
  • Stuffing Options: Experiment with different stuffing ingredients to create a variety of flavors. Try using a combination of spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, herbs, and spices.
  • Cooking Methods: Portobello mushrooms can be cooked using various methods. Grilling or broiling gives them a smoky flavor, while sautéing or pan-frying results in a tender and juicy texture. You can also stuff and bake them in the oven for a hearty and satisfying meal.
  • Serving Ideas: Stuffed portobello mushrooms are a versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. Accompany them with a side salad, roasted vegetables, or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
