Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
Step 2
Remove stems from mushrooms and finely chop stems.
Step 3
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chopped mushroom stems, shallot, and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes. Pour wine into the skillet; cook and stir mixture using a wooden spoon until liquid is evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Cool mixture to room temperature, about 10 minutes.
Step 4
Brush the olive oil mixture over the top each mushroom and place, top-side up, on a grilling pan. Mix pesto and pine nuts with the mushroom stem mixture together in a bowl; spoon into each mushroom. Sprinkle Italian cheese blend over the filling.
Step 5
Grill mushrooms on the preheated grill until edges are blackened and stuffing is bubbling, about 10 minutes.
