Destem the Shiitake mushrooms and arrange them gills up on a baking pan.

Baste them with melted butter, and minced garlic.

Crumble parmesan cheese into the caps filling them.

Roast the caps in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until cooked through and gold- en brown on the top.

Allow to cool for about 5 minutes before serving.

These make a delicious appetizer or side dish for a hearty meal.

Optional: Instead of using an oven, use a barbeque! Follow the directions above, omitting the oven, and grill the mushrooms caps directly on the grill.
