Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice the 8 oz mushrooms and mince the 2 garlic cloves. Finely chop the 2 tbsp parsley and shred the 4 oz cheddar.

  2. Step 2

    Melt 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and 0.5 tsp salt; cook until browned and tender, about 8 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add the minced garlic and 0.25 tsp black pepper to the mushrooms; stir for 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in half the parsley.

  4. Step 4

    Spread the remaining 1 tbsp butter on one side of each of the 4 bread slices. Place buttered side down on a baking sheet.

  5. Step 5

    Divide the mushroom mixture evenly over the bread slices. Top each with the shredded cheddar.

  6. Step 6

    Broil on high until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the bread edges are golden, about 3-4 minutes.

  7. Step 7

    Sprinkle with the remaining parsley and serve hot.
