Ingredients

  • 4 large portobello mushrooms, stems removed
  • 1 cup cooked millet
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

Мethod of preparation

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). 2. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Marinate the portobello mushrooms in this mixture for at least 15 minutes. 3. While the mushrooms are marinating, prepare the millet stuffing. Heat some olive oil in a skillet and sauté the chopped onion, garlic, and bell pepper until they are soft and fragrant. 4. Add cooked millet to the skillet along with thyme, rosemary, and parsley. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. 5. Remove the mushrooms from the marinade and place them on a baking sheet. Spoon the millet stuffing into each mushroom cap, pressing down slightly to ensure they are well-filled. 6. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top of the stuffed mushrooms. 7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and the feta is slightly browned. 8. Serve warm, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy your elegant side dish!
