For the stuffing:

1 small onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar

To make the stuffing: In a medium sauté pan over medium heat, cook the onion in the olive oil for 3 to 4 minutes or until the onions are tender. Remove from stove and chill completely.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the bread crumbs and the chicken broth. Add the chilled onions, marjoram, cayenne, paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, vinegar, and ground pork. Mix well. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

For the mushrooms:

12 portobella mushroom caps (about 2" diameter each), stemmed
1/4 teaspoon salt
