3 tablespoons butter
4 large portobello mushrooms
Salt and pepper to taste
2 garlic cloves, chopped
3 tablespoons dry sherry

Preheat the oven to broil.

Melt the butter in a non-stick sauté pan, and lightly sauté the mushrooms. Add salt and pepper to taste. 

Add the garlic and continue to sauté until the mushrooms are soft. 

Deglaze the pan with the sherry.

Remove the mushrooms and place on a greased baking sheet.

Drizzle some pesto onto the top of each mushroom. 

Place under broiler until the cheese melts, about one minute.
