How to Make Baked Shiitake Stuffed Mushroom Caps

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Gently remove the stems from 1 pound of shiitake mushrooms, reserving the stems for another use (optional).
3. In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces of goat cheese, 1 clove minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of finely chopped fresh herbs (such as thyme, parsley, and chives), and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
4. Spoon the goat cheese mixture generously into each shiitake cap.
5. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms in a single layer on a baking sheet.
6. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of melted butter evenly over the stuffed mushrooms.
7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
8. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
