Ingredients
- Large mushroom caps (Baby Bella or white button mushrooms)
- Boursin cheese (Garlic & Herb or other flavors)
- Prosciutto slices
- Panko breadcrumbs
- Olive oil
- Fresh parsley (optional)
- Garlic (freshly minced)
- Black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove dirt. Remove the stems and set them aside. You can chop the stems finely and add them to the filling for extra flavor.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the Boursin cheese, minced garlic, and a pinch of black pepper. If desired, stir in the finely chopped mushroom stems for added texture.
- Using a teaspoon, stuff each mushroom cap generously with the Boursin mixture.
- Wrap a small piece of prosciutto around each stuffed mushroom cap, tucking it underneath for a snug fit.
- Place the mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with a light coating of olive oil for extra flavor and to help the prosciutto crisp.
- Sprinkle panko breadcrumbs over the top of each mushroom for an irresistible crunch.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the prosciutto is golden and crispy.
- Remove the mushrooms from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness. Serve warm and enjoy!
