Stuffed Mushrooms with Chorizo Recipe
Description
The Stuffed Mushrooms with Chorizo Recipe uses cremini mushrooms hollowed out and filled with a blend of cooked Mexican chorizo and cream cheese, seasoned with fresh thyme. Crumbled panela cheese tops each mushroom before baking, giving a melty, slightly crumbly finish. The baking at 400 degrees Fahrenheit ensures the mushrooms cook through and the tops brown nicely, balancing the spicy chorizo with creamy and tangy cheese.
This dish works well served warm as an appetizer or snack, offering a savory mix of textures from tender mushrooms to rich, flavorful filling. The combination of fresh herbs adds a subtle aromatic note without overwhelming the other ingredients.
For preparation convenience, the filling can be mixed and stuffed into mushroom caps ahead of time, refrigerated overnight, and then topped with cheese and baked just before serving, allowing a practical approach for entertaining or meal prep.
Ingredients
- 1 pound cremini mushroom
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 3 ounces panela cheese crumbled
- 5 ounces Mexican chorizo
- 1 tablespoon thyme fresh leaves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Pop all the stems off the mushrooms and lay them up side down on the baking sheet.
- Heat a small skillet to medium-high. Sauté the chorizo, until cooked through. Then place it in a mixing bowl with the cream cheese and thyme. Mix thoroughly, then spoon the chorizo filling into the cavity of each mushroom.
- Sprinkle the top of each mushroom with crumbled panela cheese and bake for 18-20 minutes. Until the tops are brown and the mushrooms have cooked through. Serve warm.
Notes
- Prepare stuffed mushrooms up to the filling stage and refrigerate them sealed overnight before baking.
- Add the crumbled panela cheese just before baking for a fresh melted topping.
- Serve the mushrooms warm to enjoy the contrast between tender mushroom and savory filling.
