Ingredients

  • 10 medium mushrooms (about 1/2 lb.)
  • 6 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons shredded monterey jack cheese (or cheese of your choice, I use pepper-jack or chiquita cheese w/chiles)
  • 2 tablespoons dry white wine or 2 tablespoons red wine
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup fine cracker crumb (I use Ritz)

Method

  • Remove stems from mushrooms and reserve for another use.
  • In a small pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter; brush over mushroom caps, coating thoroughly.
  • In a small bowl, stir together remaining 4 tablespoons butter, garlic and cheese until blended; stir in wine, soy and cracker crumbs until well blended.
  • Place mushrooms, cavity side up, on a rimmed baking sheet; mound filling in mushrooms, pressing in lightly.
  • Broil about 6 inches from heat until bubbly and lightly browned, about 3 minutes; serve warm.
