1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup chopped onions
1 tbsp bread crumbs
1 tbsp dried parsley
1 tbsp all-purpose flour

Preheat oven to. Lightly grease a 13x9 inch baking dish. Remove stems from mushrooms. Finely chop stems and set aside. Arrange caps hollow side up in the baking dish. Drizzle with 5 tbsp melted butter, and salt and pepper to taste. Melt 1/4 cup butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the mushroom stems, onions and bread crumbs; cook 5 minutes, or until tender.
