How to Make Portabella And Spinach Appetizer

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add 1 cup diced chicken breast and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon soy sauce. Stir to combine.
  3. Add any center stalks from 4 large portabella mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until softened.
  4. Drain any excess oil from the skillet.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup chicken broth, 5 ounces fresh spinach (roughly chopped), 2 cloves minced garlic, and the cooked chicken mixture.
  6. Let the mixture cool slightly for 5 minutes.
  7. Whisk in 2 large eggs, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
  8. Melt 2 tablespoons butter. Brush the inside and outside of the portabella mushroom caps with the melted butter. Reserve any remaining butter.
  9. Pour the chicken and spinach mixture into the prepared mushroom caps.
  10. Top each cap with 1 tablespoon bread crumbs.
  11. Place the stuffed mushrooms in a greased baking dish. Pour any reserved butter into the bottom of the baking dish.
  12. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the egg mixture is set and the mushrooms are tender.
  13. Garnish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving.
