Roasted Red Pepper Stuffed Mushrooms
You’re going to want to save this one to pull out for your game day appetizer plans. February 4 is National Stuffed Mushroom Day and that inspired me to create this vegetarian version of a favorite app of all time.
Ingredients
- 10 to 12 baby Bella mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon ghee
- 3 tablespoons shallot, diced
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- ½ cup roasted red pepper, drained and diced
- ¼ cup almond flour
- 2 heaping tablespoons mayonnaise
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1½ teaspoons hot sauce
- Chives, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with foil.
- Clean mushrooms and remove the stems, setting aside. Place mushrooms, stem side down, on the baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes and remove from oven.
- Turn mushroom caps stem-side up.
- While mushrooms are initially roasting, mince stems to produce about 1 cup of mushroom “meat” for filling. Melt ghee in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add diced shallot to the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until soft. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium.
- Add chopped mushroom stems and continue cooking until mushroom liquid is released. Season with ½ teaspoon kosher salt and continue cooking until mushrooms just start to crisp.
- Meanwhile, drain roasted red peppers and dice small. Add peppers to the skillet and cook until liquid is mostly evaporated. Remove skillet from heat.
- In a medium bowl, add mayonnaise, hot sauce and almond flour. Add in skillet ingredients and stir until well combined. Use a spoon to stuff the prepared mushroom caps.
- Reduce oven heat to 375 degrees and return stuffed mushrooms to the oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Garnish with chopped chives (optional) and serve.
