Equipment

  • Large baking sheet

Ingredients

  • 1 package (10 oz.) jumbo button mushrooms about 10 to 12 pieces
  • 1 4 oz. Spanish chorizo (casing removed) chopped
  • 1 whole large egg
  • 1/2 cup chopped red or green bell peppers seeded, white membrane removed
  • 2 Tablespoons bread crumbs regular-flavored
  • 1 Tablespoon melted butter
  • 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • 1. Wipe button mushrooms clean with a paper towel. Hold stems firmly and pull out. This will leave the hollow portion in the middle for stuffing.
  • 2. Chop the stems finely into small bits. Combine this with the chopped chorizos, egg, chopped bell pepper, bread crumbs and melted butter. Mix well and place stuffing inside the hollow part of the mushrooms.
  • 3. Sprinkle grated cheese on each mushroom. Place in a pre-greased shallow baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven of 350 F degrees for 9-10 minutes. Serve piping hot.
  • Cook's Comments: The Spanish chorizo sausages are typically filled with spicy seasonings and have a robust, smoky, paprika-like and savory flavor. Thus, there is no need to add any more salt, pepper or other spices to the mixture. And if grilling is preferred for this recipe, just cover the aluminum pan with foil and place on top of the grill. Cook on high heat for the same amount of time.
