Print Recipe
Servings 18

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 lb pork sausage maple, honey garlic, or your favourite
  • 18 large mushroom caps
  • 2 tbsp butter or margarine
  • 2 tbsp finely minced onions
  • 1 clove garlic very finely minced
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp dry sherry
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese grated

Instructions
 

  • Squeeze pork sausage out of casings. Chop mushroom stems finely. In a large skillet, over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté mushroom caps for 2 to 3 minutes or until slightly golden. Remove from pan with a slotted spoon and drain, upside down, on paper towels.
  • Reduce heat slightly. Add sausage and onions to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the meat loses its pink colour. Remove sausage mixture with a slotted spoon. If necessary, drain excess fat from the pan. Add the chopped stems and the garlic and sauté for 2 minutes.
  • Remove skillet from heat and add the breadcrumbs, sherry, parsley, oregano, sausage-onion mixture and salt. Mix well and let cool slightly. Stir in the mozzarella cheese. Spoon stuffing mixture into mushroom caps and refrigerate.
  • When ready to serve, place stuffed mushrooms on a lightly greased baking sheet. Place under a broiler for 2 to 3 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
