This sensible weeknight dinner gives all of the comforting flavors of a traditional Parmigiana, however with minimal work. Earthy portobello mushrooms are used right here, providing an ideal cradle for the purple sauce and creamy mozzarella. Use good high quality store-bought marinara sauce (vodka, arrabiata or amatriciana), a much-underrated pantry merchandise that may flip round a meal shortly. This versatile recipe might be scaled up or down with out an excessive amount of fuss. It accounts for 2 portobello mushrooms per individual, however in case you’re serving them with pasta or a salad, you could possibly cut back to 1 every. The basil-scented bread crumbs end the mushrooms with a stunning, herbaceous crunch. Additional bread crumbs preserve properly in an hermetic container and are great for topping pasta, salads, soups and roasted greens.
