kcalIngredients
15 large white mushrooms, stems removed and reserved
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons Madeira wine
1/4 pound chicken sausage, casings removed or ground chicken
1/2 cup grated Asiago cheese
2 tablespoons seasoned dry bread crumbs
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
- Lightly brush the mushroom caps with 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and set aside. Finely chop the reserved mushroom stems.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 1 minute or until just beginning to soften. Add the chopped mushroom stems and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, or until they begin to brown. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- Pour in the Madeira wine and cook for 1 minute. Add the chicken sausage (casings removed or ground chicken) and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until no longer pink, stirring to break it into small pieces. Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool for 5 minutes. Stir in the grated Asiago cheese, seasoned bread crumbs, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper.
- Divide the mushroom-sausage mixture evenly among the mushroom caps, pressing slightly to compress the filling. Place the stuffed mushroom caps in a single layer in the Crock-Pot Slow Cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours or on HIGH for 2 hours.
