Dina's Tossed Mushrooms
Description
This recipe features cleaned and quartered or halved white button mushrooms layered in a baking dish with a small amount of water to maintain moisture during cooking. The mushrooms are topped with a blend of Italian-style breadcrumbs, grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, minced garlic, parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper. Olive oil is drizzled over and the mushrooms are lightly sprayed to ensure even roasting and browning.
Baking at 350°F allows the mushrooms to cook through and release their natural juices while the breadcrumb topping crisps to a golden color. An optional brief broil can add extra color and crunch. The result is a dish with tender mushrooms beneath a crunchy, cheesy herb topping.
This preparation serves well as a warm side dish accompanying meats or as part of a vegetable platter. It highlights the mushrooms’ earthy flavor by adding fresh herbs and a textural contrast with the breadcrumb topping.
Ingredients
- 1 pound white button mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1/4 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Parmigiano Reggiano cheese (grated)
- 2 tablespoons Italian parsley (minced)
- 1/4 teaspoon thyme (fresh or dried)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- black pepper (to taste)
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- olive oil spray form
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
- Slice off the bottom of the stems; then, use a moist paper towel to gently remove any dirt from mushrooms.
- Quarter or halve the mushrooms, depending on the size.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of water in the bottom of a 13 x 9 baking dish then place mushrooms in a single layer on top of the water.
- In a small bowl combine next six ingredients: breadcrumbs through salt/pepper. Spray the tops of the mushrooms with oil then sprinkle the mixture evenly on top of the mushrooms.
- Drizzle evenly with olive oil then spray the top with a little more olive oil spray so it's evenly coated. Bake uncovered until the mushrooms are golden, about 20 minutes. Optional, broil 1 to 2 minutes until golden. Serve hot or warm.
