Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400℉ and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Add the prepared mushrooms (opening side up) to the pan.
18 button mushrooms
Add a large skillet to the stove over medium heat. Add the ground sausage and break it up constantly as it cooks, making sure they’re crumbled into small pieces and get nice and brown.
8 ounces ground sausage
Add the onion, garlic, thyme, and salt to the sausage pan and cook until the onions are translucent and everything is very fragrant. Don’t let the garlic brown too much. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and cool slightly.
½ cup finely diced yellow onion, 3 cloves garlic, 2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme, ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Add the boursin and mix to combine, then add in the fontina and parmesan. Mix until smooth.
1 pack boursin cheese, ½ cup shredded fontina cheese, ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
Scoop the mixture into the mushrooms, pressing it down, then adding a bit more and creating a small mound in each mushroom.
Mix together the panko, parsley, salt, and olive oil until the panko is coated, then sprinkle evenly on top of each filled mushroom cap.
⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the mushrooms are cooked through and the tops are nice and browned. Transfer to a serving platter and finish with extra parsley.
