Stuffed Mushrooms

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees
2. Clean mushrooms, but do NOT wet them - they hold water as it is - just clean them with a soft white cloth or paper towel - remove stems and chop the steps into small pieces
3. In a bowl combine 1 1/2 cups of Italian seasoned bread crumbs, 1/2 cup of Pecorino Romano grated cheese, small handful of fresh parsley - chopped very fine, pinch of oregano, pinch of crushed red pepper flakes - as for the fresh garlic - I use about 5 -6 large cloves - chopped - you can decrease or increase to taste. Add the chopped mushroom stems into mixture and combine all ingredients very well.
4. In a shallow baking pan, lightly grease the pan and place mushroom caps on pan - fill each cap to overflow a bit - drizzle a small amount of olive oil on top of each stuffed mushroom and put into oven. I bake at 450 degrees for approximately 10 minutes - or until lightly browned on top!
