Baked Parmesan Mushrooms
Baked Parmesan Mushrooms feature thinly sliced cremini mushrooms coated with olive oil, fresh lemon juice and zest, minced garlic, thyme, and grated Parmesan cheese. Baking enhances their earthy flavor and softens the mushrooms while the Parmesan forms a flavorful, slightly crisp topping. Light seasoning with salt and black pepper balances the dish, creating a savory, tangy side perfect to serve warm.
