Portobello Burgers With Goat Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Clean the dark black gills from the mushrooms, then drizzle with a little olive oil, season with salt and pepper and place over medium heat on an open barbecue grill, face down. After a few minutes, turn them over and continue to cook.
• In a mixing bowl combine the goat cheese with minced garlic, salt and pepper, to taste, and the mixture of fresh herbs torn by hand.
• Mix the cheese until all of the ingredients have been incorporated and a nice creamy texture is achieved.
• When the mushrooms begin to get soft and give off a little of their juice, add a nice spoonful of the goat cheese mixture right into the center of each portobello.
• Close the lid of the barbecue and let cook until the cheese gets bubbly and the mushrooms are nice and soft.

Steps:

• Place the mushroom caps, smooth side up, in a shallow dish. In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, oil, basil, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper. Pour over the mushrooms. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes or so, turning twice.
• Preheat grill for medium-high heat.
• Brush grate with oil. Place mushrooms on the grill, reserving marinade for basting. Grill for 5 to 8 minutes on each side, or until tender. Brush with marinade frequently. Top with cheese during the last 2 minutes of grilling.

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, whisk together oil, vinegar, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add bell pepper and mushrooms; toss gently to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes (or refrigerate, up to overnight).
• Heat grill to medium; lightly oil grates. Grill bell pepper, skin side down, until blackened, about 10 minutes; remove from grill. When cool enough to handle, remove and discard skin; set bell pepper aside. Grill mushrooms, covered, until lightly charred and tender, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Dividing evenly, top bottom half of each bun with bell pepper, mushrooms, goat cheese, and lettuce. Close burgers, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Cut the tops off the beets and place them in a baking dish with enough water to cover the bottom of the dish.
• Roast the beets in the preheated oven until they are easily pierced with a knife, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes. Refrigerate while you prepare the mushroom caps.
• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack to the second level from the heat source.
• Whisk olive oil, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, and 2 cloves minced garlic together in a bowl. Spread about 1/2 of this mixture over the ribbed side of the portobello mushroom caps; arrange the mushrooms on a baking sheet with the ribbed sides facing upwards.
• Broil the mushrooms until tender, making sure to not burn the garlic, 5 to 7 minutes. Flip the mushrooms and brush the remaining olive oil mixture over the tops of the caps. Return to the oven and broil until tender, about 5 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, remove beets from the refrigerator; thinly slice.
• Spread equal amounts of the goat cheese on one half of each of the sandwich rolls. Top each with sliced beets and spinach.
• Whisk mayonnaise, garlic, and lime juice together in a bowl; spread evenly over the remaining sandwich roll halves and top with one mushroom cap each. Bring the two halves together to form the sandwiches to serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic, shallots, salt and pepper. Arrange the mushroom caps in a single layer in a shallow, nonreactive dish. Pour half the marinade over the mushrooms and reserve the remainder. Cover and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, turning after 30 minutes.
• Prepare a fire in a grill. Lightly oil the grill rack. When the coals are hot, remove the mushrooms from the marinade, place on the grill rack and weigh with a large fry pan. Grill the mushrooms until tender and seared on both sides, about 4 minutes total.
• Drizzle about 1 Tb of the reserved marinade on each roll half. Place a mushroom on the bottom half of each roll. Sprinkle the top half with goat cheese, then cover with sun-dried tomatoes and basil leaves. Place the halves together. Secure each sandwich with toothpicks, cut in half, and wrap in aluminum foil. Keep chilled until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, whisk together oil, vinegar, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add bell pepper and mushrooms; toss gently to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes (or refrigerate, up to overnight).
• Heat grill to medium; lightly oil grates. Grill bell pepper, skin side down, until blackened, about 10 minutes; remove from grill. When cool enough to handle, remove and discard skin; set bell pepper aside.
• Grill mushrooms, covered, until lightly charred and tender, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Dividing evenly, top the bottom half of each bun with bell pepper, mushrooms, goat cheese, onion slice and lettuce. Close burgers, and serve immediately.
• Note: A large shallow dish allows the marinade to evenly coat the vegetables. Portobello burgers are nice and juicy because the mushroom caps underside thirstily absorbs the marinade.
