It is necessary to simplify a menu when there is less time to prepare. The goal is to create a delicious meal with a stunning presentation; the entertaining concept is to not be exhausted from the preparation. Over the years, I have observed many overly ambitious hosts and hostesses create such complicated menus that it caused accidents in the kitchen. This a my recipe for Portobello Mushrooms Ambassadeur Style. It is stylish on the plate and pleasing to the pallet, too! Extend the invitation to many; it is dining dynamics at its best.
Portobello Mushrooms Ambassadeur Style
Prepare the duxelle stuffing by chopping and sautéing white mushrooms, canned and drained artichoke hearts, a dash of balsamic vinegar with chopped basil and chopped shallots in butter. Add Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Sauté a Portobello mushroom, per person. Stuff each Portobello mushroom with the duxelle mixture. Top with crisp crumbled bacon. © Kelly McBride Loft
