Ingredients
  

  • 12 to 14 large mushrooms
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 4 tablespoons minced green or red bell pepper, or a mixture of both
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 4 strips bacon, cooked but not crisp (finely chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 can, 6.5 ounces minced clams (drained)
  • 1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs, plain or garlic and herb
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a jelly roll pan or baking pan with foil and place a cooling rack in the pan.
  • Rinse mushrooms and pat dry. Carefully remove the stems, then chop the stems finely and set aside.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Brush each mushroom cap lightly with a bit of melted butter and arrange them, rounded side down, on the rack.
  • Add the chopped mushroom stems, onion, and bell pepper to the remaining butter in the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender and translucent.
  • Stir in the parsley, chopped bacon, lemon juice, drained clams, and bread crumbs. Blend well and remove from heat.
  • In a separate bowl, lightly beat the egg. Once the stuffing mixture has cooled slightly, add it to the egg and stir until well combined.
  • Spoon the stuffing mixture into each mushroom cap, mounding it slightly. Sprinkle the tops with grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are nicely browned.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!
