Preparation
- Step 1
Whisk together the eggs and milk and pour into a large, shallow bowl. Place the bread crumbs on a plate. One at a time, dip the mushrooms into the egg mixture, making sure that they are thoroughly coated, and dredge the mushrooms in the bread crumbs until they are completely covered. Transfer the mushrooms to a clean platter.
- Step 2
In a medium skillet, add 1 ½ cups olive oil and set over high heat. When the oil is very hot, fry the mushrooms one at a time until golden, 3 to 4 minutes a side, lowering the heat if they cook too quickly. Drain on a rack or paper towels. Sprinkle them with salt on both sides, transfer to a platter and keep warm.
- Step 3
Pour out the oil and return the pan to medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the pan along with the lemon juice, capers and ¼ teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk in the butter and parsley. Pour the sauce over the mushrooms and serve.

This recipe could use some salt in the egg mixture. I also think using something with more texture to bread it would be preferable. If you cook this, be sure to get fairly flat portabellas too.
I'll take your advice and will be using Panko as a substitute for the bread crumbs, as I usually do for recipes that ask for bread crumbs.
