Grilled Portobello Mushrooms With Balsamic Recipes

GRILLED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and kosher salt.
• Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp paper towel. Gently twist off or cut off the stems. Use a spoon to gently scrape out the gills.
• Using a pastry brush, coat the gill side with about a third of the marinade.
• Heat a 2-burner griddle, a grill pan, or an outdoor grill on medium heat. Grease the grill well.
• Place the mushrooms, gill side down, on the grill. Grill until the gill side is browned and tender, 4-5 minutes.*
• When the gill side is almost ready, brush the tops of the mushrooms with another third of the marinade.
• Flip the mushrooms so that they're gill side up. Continue grilling them until they are browned and tender, 2-3 more minutes.
• Transfer the mushrooms to a plate. Brush them with the remaining marinade, sprinkle them with parsley (if using), and serve.

GRILLED PORTABELLA MUSHROOMS WITH BALSAMIC MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine first 6 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add caps to the marinade. Seal and marinate in fridge up to 24 hours.
• Prepare grill or broiler.
• Remove caps and discard marinade. Place caps on grill rack or broiler coated with spray. Cook 5 minutes or until tender.
• Heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion. Cover and cook ten minutes or until golden, stirring frequently. (at this point I assume you mix the onions and garlic into the mayo, but I've never actually used this step).
• Assemble grilled portabella sandwiches with one cap per bun, plus any lettuce, mayo, tomato, onion, or other garnish that you like. Or slice the portabellas into strips and enjoy as a topping for a mixed green salad with onion, tomato, etc.

Steps:

• Several hours before cooking, place portobello mushrooms in a large sealable plastic bag. Pour in some olive oil, enough to coat all mushrooms, plus some excess. Sprinkle a little salt and some cracked pepper into the bag. Add about a tablespoon of minced garlic. Seal bag and shake. Refrigerate for a few hours.
• Preheat grill to high, remove the mushrooms from the bags and place on grill for 5 to 7 minutes per side or longer; you really can't overcook them. Flip them every few minutes or so.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO PARMESAN

Steps:

• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Whisk extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and pressed garlic clove in small bowl. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper. Arrange portobello mushrooms on rimmed baking sheet, gill side up. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spoon generous tablespoon dressing into each mushroom; swirl to coat. Stir ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil in small bowl to blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Arrange tomato slices on plate; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place mushrooms on grill, gill side down. Grill until edges begin to soften, 3 to 5 minutes, depending on thickness of mushrooms. Transfer mushrooms to same baking sheet, gill side up. Nestle 1 tomato slice into each mushroom. Divide ricotta cheese mixture atop sliced tomatoes, spreading to cover, about 3 tablespoons per mushroom. Top with Fontina cheese slices, dividing equally. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese over each. Carefully return mushrooms to grill. Cover barbecue and cook until mushrooms are soft and cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle remaining chopped fresh basil over. Place mushrooms on plates. Drizzle remaining dressing around mushrooms and serve.
