    List of Ingredients


    • 1 whole medium-sized garlic head
    • 3 Tbsp plus 1 tsp olive oil (divided)
    • 16 mushrooms, about 1 3/4 - 2 inches in diameter, cleaned
    • 1 tsp unsalted butter
    • 3/4 cup fresh finely ground sourdough bread crumbs
    • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
    • 1 1/2 tsp chopped fresh rosemary or 1/2 tsp dried
    • 1/4 tsp salt
    • 1/4 tsp pepper


    Instructions


    1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Remove loose paper from garlic head and cut and discard a thin slice off top (pointed end), exposed cloves. Place garlic head, cut side up, in a small ramekin and drizzle with 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. Cover tightly with a double thickness of aluminum foil. Roast for 30 minutes, remove foil and roast for 15 to 20 minutes more. Garlic should be golden brown and tender when pierced with a knife. Remove and cool.
    2. While garlic is roasting, prepare stuffing. Twist off stems and scoop out mushrooms with a small spoon. Finely chop stems. Heat butter with 1 teaspoon oil in a medium, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add chopped mushroom stems and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add bread crumbs and stir constantly, cooking until lightly toasted, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley, rosemary, salt and pepper. Set aside.
    3. Seperate roasted garlic into cloves and peel; reserve oil. Using a fork, finely mash enough garlic in a bowl to measure 1 1/2 tablespoons. (Save any extra garlic for another use). Mix in reserved oil. Stir garlic mixture into chopped mushroom mixture. Season with salt and pepper.
    4. Line a large baking sheet with foil. Spray with nonstick spray. Brush mushroom caps with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. Place caps, hollowed sides up, on sheet and lightly salt them. Spoon stuffing into mushrooms, mounding it in center. Bring to room temperature 15 minutes before baking.
    5. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake mushrooms, uncovered, until tender, about 20 minutes.
