Grilled Portobello Pizzas Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Dress the mushroom caps with liberal drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil the portobello mushrooms 5 minutes on each side until tender.
• While caps are broiling heat 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat, add sausage and brown and crumble the meat, then add tomatoes to skillet and cook another few minutes until they burst. Add cream to skillet and reduce 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove the sausage from heat and fold in basil. Fill mushroom caps and top with cheese, place under broiler to brown 2 to 3 minutes then quarter caps and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high heat.
• Remove bottom stem from portobello. Brush both sides with olive oil and sprinkle the inside of each mushroom with salt and garlic pepper. Place the mushrooms on the grill bottom side up. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side rotating half way through to achieve grill marks.
• Remove from grill, placing the mushrooms bottom side up. Fill with your choice of the assorted sauces and top with your choice of cheese.
• Return the mushrooms to the top rack or shelf of your barbeque, close lid and reduce heat to medium high and cook for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
• Remove and place on a cutting board and cut into triangles like a pizza. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Prepare a stove-top griddle or outdoor grill.
• Combine the tomatoes, thyme, 2 teaspoons of olive oil, the roasted garlic, and salt and pepper in a small bowl and toss. Set aside.
• Brush the top and bottom of each mushroom with the remaining oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and grill until the mushrooms are tender, about 4 minutes per side.
• Place the mushrooms stem side up on a cutting board. Arrange an equal amount of the tomato mixture on 4 mushrooms. Top each with a shaving of Parmigiano-Reggiano.
• Arrange a slice of prosciutto on each of the remaining mushrooms and spread 1 tablespoon of the pesto on top of each prosciutto slice.
• Arrange 1 of each pizza on each of 4 dinner plates and serve.

Steps:

• Chop the garlic cloves, then sprinkle with some salt and smear to a paste, using the side of your knife blade. Transfer the garlic paste to a bowl and stir in the vinegar. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. Fold in the anchovies, basil, olives, capers and pepper flakes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature while you grill the vegetables.
• Heat a grill to high. Brush the red and yellow peppers with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, covered, until charred on all sides and soft, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the peppers to a bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and let steam for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, put the tomatoes in a grill basket and grill, covered, tossing occasionally, until charred in spots and softened, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Brush the portobellos with canola oil and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Grill on both sides, covered, until a paring knife inserted in the center meets no resistance, 3 to 5 minutes per side. While the portobellos are cooking, peel, seed and thinly slice the peppers.
• Turn the portobellos gill-side up and top each with some of the goat cheese. Grill, covered, until the cheese softens, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter and top each mushroom with some tomatoes and peppers. Spoon a generous amount of dressing over each "pizza" and serve warm.

Steps:

• Puree all the ingredients to form a sauce.
• Rub mushrooms with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place the mushrooms on the grill, rib side down, and cook for 5 minutes. Turn mushrooms and place green sauce over mushrooms. Add sliced goat cheese. Touch with a little more sauce. Close the top to the grill and smoke for 5 minutes more.
• Lightly brush eggplant, zucchini and onions with olive oil and then season with salt and pepper. Grill for 3 minutes on each side. Grill tomato for 3 minutes on each side. While vegetables are hot, using a ceramic mold or bread pan lined with plastic wrap, make a layer of eggplant and then spread with 1-ounce of Jack cheese. Make a layer of red pepper and spread with 1-ounce Jack cheese. Make a layer of zucchini and spread with jack cheese. Make a layer of onion with jack cheese. Make a layer of green peppers and then a layer of goat cheese. Make another layer of eggplant and then another layer of goat cheese. Finally, make a layer of tomato and then a layer of basil. Lightly press, weight and allow to sit for 20 minutes. Turn upside down and release from the mold. Place left over goat cheese on top and garnish with basil.
• Place tomatoes, meat side down, over medium hot grill for 8 minutes. Carefully remove and place in blender. Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth.
