Portabellos with Herbed Stuffing and Sweet Potatoes
Yield: 6-8 servings
INGREDIENTS
- 1 medium sweet potato (about 12 oz.), peeled and cut into ½-inch chunks
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- 6-8 portabello mushrooms
- 1 small onion, diced small
- 1 stalk celery, diced small
- 1 tsp. fresh thyme leaves
- ½ tsp. minced fresh sage
- 3½ cups cubed or torn whole grain bread (crusts removed)
- ½ cup vegetable stock
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Add the sweet potato chunks to a baking dish. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake until just fork tender, about 12-15 minutes. Remove from the oven but maintain oven temperature.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Remove the stems from the mushrooms and carefully scrape the gills from the caps with a spoon or paring knife; discard. Place the mushrooms caps on the baking sheet. Drizzle each lightly with olive oil. Roast the caps about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, maintaining the oven temperature.
- While the mushrooms are baking, add about 2 teaspoons of olive oil to a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and celery to the pan and sauté just until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in the thyme and sage and cook 1 minute more, until fragrant. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside to cool for a few minutes.
- Gently stir in the bread cubes, vegetable stock, and sweet potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Mound a portion of the stuffing mixture into each mushroom cap. Return the pan to the oven and bake 15 minutes more, until the stuffing is golden brown. Serve immediately.
