Ingredients
  

  • 24 baby portabello mushroom caps stems removed
  • 2 cans Wild Selections Solid White Albacore Tuna drained
  • 1/4 cup shredded reduced fat Italian cheese blend
  • 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup Italian Parsley minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme + 10-12 sprigs of fresh thyme for inlay of the cast iron pan
  • 1 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper

Instructions
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, add all ingredients (except the fresh sprigs of thyme and butter!)
  3. Mix ingredients in the bowl with a wooden spoon or your hands. I used my hands because I wanted to make sure ingredients were mixed well, and the chunks of the solid albacore tuna was shredded.
  4. After you have wiped off your mushroom caps, fill each cap with about 1 tablespoon of filling. I slightly over filled the mushrooms caps.
  5. Once mushroom caps are filled, place them in a cast iron pan (you can use another pan of choice). It's okay if the mushrooms are a bit snug in the pan. They will cook down! 
  6. Add your fresh sprigs of thyme around the edge of the pan, and drizzle olive oil into between the mushrooms.
  7. Cook for approximately 35 minutes. We want the tops to have a lovely golden brown color on them.
  8. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before servings.

Notes

Want to indulge? Add 2 tablespoons of butter into the pan before cooking and then drizzle on top of mushrooms when done!
