These Olive Garden Stuffed Mushrooms are a delicious appetizer featuring large fresh mushrooms filled with a savory mixture of minced clams, garlic, green onions, Italian breadcrumbs, and cheeses, baked to perfection with a buttery topping and melted mozzarella cheese.

Ingredients

Mushrooms

  • 12 Large Fresh Mushrooms
  • 3 Tbsp Butter, melted
  • ¼ cup Mozzarella Cheese, finely grated

Filling

  • 1 can Minced Clams (6 oz), drained
  • 1 Green Onion, finely chopped
  • 1 Large Egg, beaten
  • 2 tsp Minced Garlic
  • ½ cup Italian Bread Crumbs
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 1 Tbsp Butter, melted
  • 3 Tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and spray a baking dish large enough to hold the mushrooms with a non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking during baking.
  2. Prepare Mushrooms: Remove the stems from the mushrooms and clean them gently using a dry paper towel to avoid sogginess caused by water.
  3. Make Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the drained minced clams, finely chopped green onion, beaten egg, minced garlic, Italian bread crumbs, dried oregano, melted butter, and grated Parmesan cheese until thoroughly mixed.
  4. Stuff Mushrooms: Spoon about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the prepared filling into each mushroom cap, placing them filling side up on the prepared baking dish. Depending on mushroom size, you should be able to fill 8 to 12 mushrooms.
  5. Add Butter: Drizzle the 3 tablespoons of melted butter evenly over the stuffed mushrooms to add richness and help with browning.
  6. Bake Covered: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender.
  7. Add Mozzarella: Remove the foil, sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese over the mushrooms, and bake uncovered for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Serve: Remove from oven and serve warm to enjoy the delicious stuffed mushrooms at their best.

Notes
