Stuffed Mushroom Skewers Side Dish Recipe

I was inspired by a cooking magazine (Cucinare bene) to prepare this particular and tasty side dish with some champignon mushroom caps that had published a similar and yet different recipe…
Stuffed mushroom skewers are a quick dish that I cooked on the grill but will also be good cooked in the oven.
I feared that the arugula cheese filling I prepared would melt, but it stuck well to the mushrooms; I deliberately didn’t add even a drop of oil, but if you prefer…^_^

WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMONLY USED MUSHROOMS IN COOKING???

1) CHAMPIGNON: they are available all year round and are extremely versatile;

2) PORCINI: good raw, sautéed, dried;

3) CHANTERELLES OR GIROLLES: they look like a trumpet and shine in simple preparations;

4) MORELS: found dried; fresh is poisonous, so it must be cooked, and it has a delicate almost sweet aroma;

5) PIOPPINI: perfect in preparations requiring long cooking times like stews and roasts;

6) SHIITAKE: the excellence of oriental dishes, also used to prepare great soups.
