Instructions

Servings: 4. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Clean the mushrooms. Remove the stems and reserve. Parboil the mushrooms in just enough water to cover, for 3 minutes, until barely cooked. Drain well, blot with paper towels, and set aside until needed. If the tip of the stems seem woody, trim them away. Chop stems coarsely. Melt 2 T of the butter in a skillet. Toss the chopped mushrooms stems and scallions. Saute until tender and most of the mushroom juices have evaporated. Toss in the pecans, pecans, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and remaining tablespoon of butter. Stir until the butter is melted and absorbed. Stir in the garlic bechamel. Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Stuff each mushroom cap with the mixture, mounding it neatly over the top. Sprinkle each with some cayenne pepper. Put stuffed mushrooms in a lightly oiled, shallow baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes or until heated through. Serve at once.
