Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Using your hands, lightly rub each portobello mushroom with pinzimonio. Heat a skillet over medium heat with butter and extra virgin olive oil.
Add onions with a touch of kosher salt and saute until brown. Add beef to the skillet with a tablespoon of pinzimonio.
Cook until meat is almost completely browned. Add tomatoes, oregano, thyme, parsley, and garlic; cook for 2-3 minutes.
Transfer to a mixing bowl. Add brie to mixing bowl and fold in the egg white. Divide the filling among the mushroom caps.
Place the filled mushrooms on a baking sheet. Combine bread crumbs and cheese in a small mixing bowl. Divide the bread crumb mixture evenly among the tops of the mushrooms.
Bake until golden brown on top and the mushrooms are tender, about 15 to 18 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with remaining tablespoon of parsley, drizzle with pinzimonio.
