Grilled Portobello Scallion Manchego Sandwiches Recipes

GRILLED PORTOBELLO BURGER WITH ONION JAM

Steps:

• Put the yogurt in a paper towel-lined strainer set over a bowl, set aside to drain and thickened, about 60 minutes. Discard the watery liquid. Whisk the horseradish into the thickened yogurt.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium skillet, over medium heat. Add the onions, 1 thyme sprig, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, covered, until the onions have wilted, about 10 to 15 minutes, (give them a stir every now and then with a wooden spoon to prevent them from sticking). Add the red wine, and simmer over high heat until most of the wine gets absorbed into the onions. Add the honey and red wine vinegar and simmer gently until the onions get jam-like, about, about 15 minutes.
• Preheat a stove top grill pan over medium-high heat. Whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, garlic, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl. Strip and add the leaves from the remaining sprig of thyme. Coat the mushroom caps all over with the flavored olive oil. Grill the mushrooms, turning as needed, until tender but not mushy about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Season with the salt and pepper.
• Sandwich the mushroom between the buns, top with some of the onion jam, some lettuce, and a dollop of the horseradish cream. Serve warm.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO WITH BASIL MAYONNAISE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate. Whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and garlic in a small bowl.
• Arrange the portobello mushrooms gill-side up on a tray or baking sheet. Brush the mushrooms with some of the vinegar mixture, and allow to marinate for 3 to 5 minutes.
• Place the marinated mushrooms on the preheated grill, gill-side down. Grill mushrooms until tender, brushing both sides of the mushrooms with the remaining marinade, about 4 minutes on each side.
• Mix the mayonnaise, dijon mustard, lemon juice, and basil in a small bowl. Butter the toasted kaiser rolls, then spread with the mayonnaise mixture. Divide the mushrooms, lettuce, and tomato slices evenly to make 6 sandwiches.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat. Brush mushroom and pepper with reserved artichoke marinade. Grill 5 min. on each side, brushing with any remaining marinade for the last few minutes. Meanwhile, grill 1 to 2 min. on each side or until lightly toast on both sides. Slide mushroom and pepper. Spread 1 toast slice with dressing; spread remaining toast slice with pesto. Fill toast slices with grilled vegetables, cheese and artichokes to make sandwich. Substitute: Substitute KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing for the reserved artichoke marinade. Make Ahead: Vegetables can be grilled ahead of time; cool, then refrigerate up to 24 hours. Reheat in microwave before using as directed.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO, SCALLION & MANCHEGO SANDWICHES

Steps:

• 1. For dressing: Toast pimenton in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 4 minutes. Puree pimenton, piquillo peppers, mayonnaise, vinegar, honey, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper, to taste, in a blender until smooth. Transfer mixture to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate.
• 2. For vegetables: Preheat grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high. Brush both sides of the mushrooms with some olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill mushrooms, turning once, until tender and slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Brush scallions with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and grill, turning occasionally, until soft and slightly charred, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and roughly chop.
• 3. Grill bread on both sides until lightly toasted. Rub garlic and spread dressing onto one side of each piece toast. Layer scallions, mushrooms, and cheese on 4 toasts, and top with remaining bread. Press down slightly and cut in half; serve.
