Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Clean the large white mushrooms gently under cold water. Remove the stems to create hollow caps for stuffing. Place the caps on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 10 minutes.
  3. While the caps are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, about 5–7 minutes. Mix in cream cheese, Parmesan, garlic, and seasonings until well combined.
  4. Fill each mushroom cap with the sausage mixture, packing it well. Sprinkle panko breadcrumbs evenly over each stuffed mushroom.
  5. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on the baking sheet and bake for 22 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown.
  6. Remove the mushrooms from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
