Generous Servings
Recipe from Martha Stewart
Husband-Tested
in Alice’s Kitchen
This was an easy-to-make, vegetarian, and elegant
appetizer for a dinner party. Make the
filling and prep the mushrooms several hours in advance. Fill the mushrooms an hour before the party
and then just before your guests arrive, pop them in the oven. Serve these with Sparkling Red-Wine Cocktails
for a perfect party starter.
Olive
oil, for baking sheet
(Or use parchment
paper.)
3 slices
sandwich bread (I used whole-wheat
bread.)
1 garlic
clove, coarsely chopped
1 log (5
ounces) soft goat cheese, crumbled
½ cup
fresh parsley leaves
¼ teaspoon
red-pepper flakes
Coarse
salt
20 oz.
white button or cremini mushrooms, stems removed
1.
Preheat
oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet or line the baking sheet
with parchment paper.
2.
In
a food processor, pulse bread and garlic until fine crumbs form; scoop out ½
cup and set aside.
3.
To
the food processor, add goat cheese, parsley, and red-pepper flakes. Season the
filling with salt, and pulse filling until combined.
4.
Spoon
filling into each mushroom. (I used a
very small ice cream scoop.) Roll filled side in reserved breadcrumbs.
Place on prepared baking sheet.
5.
Bake
until mushrooms are tender and lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.

Note: When I made these, a few hours in advance, I quickly rinsed
the mushrooms and set them aside on a towel to dry. Then I sprayed the mushroom caps with cooking
spray and covered them. I made the
filling a few hours in advance. I placed
it in an airtight container on the counter until it was time to fill the mushrooms.
