This clever weeknight meal delivers all the comforting flavors of classic Parmigiana with minimal effort. Earthy portobello mushrooms serve as the ideal vessel for rich red sauce and creamy mozzarella—replacing the traditional eggplant while retaining the dish’s hearty essence.

Opt for high-quality store-bought marinara sauce (such as vodka, arrabiata, or amatriciana): a highly underrated pantry staple that can elevate a meal in minutes without the need for homemade sauce.

This adaptable recipe scales up or down with little hassle. It calls for 2 portobello mushrooms per person, but if serving alongside pasta or a salad, reduce portions to 1 mushroom per guest to balance the meal.

Basil-infused breadcrumbs add a delightful, herbaceous crunch to the finished mushrooms. Leftover breadcrumbs store well in an airtight container and make an excellent topping for pasta, salads, soups, or roasted vegetables.
