Baked Mushrooms with Herb Ricotta

4 large, flat mushrooms (portabella)
1 Tbsp. EVOO
1 shallot OR 1/2 red onion, coarsely chopped
1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 Tbsp. fresh chives
1 16oz. container ricotta cheese
Salt/Pepper

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Remove any stems from the mushrooms and set aside. Put the mushrooms in a shallow baking dish and brush with the EVOO.

Put the mushroom stems, shallot/red onion, parsley, and chives in a food processor and blend until finely chopped. Season with salt & pepper to taste.

Put the hopped ingredients in a bowl with the ricotta and stir to mix evenly.

Spoon the herb ricotta onto the top of the mushrooms. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 min., or until tender and bubbling. Serve immediately.
