Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 large portabella mushrooms, stems & gills removed
1 lb Italian sausage
1 teaspoon fresh Italian parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh basil, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 cup garlic-flavored croutons, finely ground
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
2 eggs
2 cups heavy cream (Sauce)
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped or 2 teaspoons dry basil
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • MUSHROOMS.
  • CLEAN top of mushrooms with damp cloth. Place cleaned mushrooms on a sheet tray, stem side down. Bake at 350ºF for 5-8 minutes.
  • REMOVE from oven until ready to stuff, in step 5 below.
  • STUFFING.
  • BROWN sausage in a nonstick skillet, crumbling sausage into small pieces. Once browned, drain fat and transfer to a paper towel to cool.
  • BEAT eggs with milk in a medium bowl, then mix in parsley, basil, garlic, croutons, and Parmesan cheese.
  • ADD cooled sausage and mix well -- mixture should be wet but firm and hold together easily.
  • TOP pre-baked mushroom caps with sausage mixture and bake in 350ºF oven for 15 - 20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked throughout.
  • SAUCE.
  • HEAT cream in sauce pan and lightly boil until half its original volume, being careful not to scorch. Mix in Parmesan cheese, basil, salt and pepper.
  • SPOON 2 ounces of sauce over top of each mushroom.
  • Garnish with a sprig of fresh Italian parsley or fresh basil and serve.
