INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 400°F. Clean mushroom caps with a paper towel and place on a sheet tray. (Remove the stems, but don’t discard them.)
Sprinkle mushrooms with sea salt and pepper. Chop the mushroom stems. In a saucepan, add extra virgin olive oil and sauté the fresh chopped garlic, chopped mushroom stems, fresh parsley, salt and pepper. Set aside.
In a bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, one beaten egg, 2 tbsp. RFK Fig Orange Black Pepper artisan fruit spread and 3 oz. of bleu cheese. Toss in the sautéed items from the saucepan. Gently fold.
Top each mushroom with the folded items above. Then, bake the mushrooms for 10 minutes, until they get a little crisp on the edges and the cheese melts. Remove from oven and top each with a bit more Fig Orange Black Pepper fruit spread, and sprinkle on the remaining bleu cheese.
Serve with crostini or rustic French bread and RFK’s Fig Orange Black Pepper on the side.
