Grilled Portobello Panini Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Mix together oil, salt and pepper, and garlic. Marinate mushrooms and onions with this for about thirty minutes.
• Grill mushrooms and onions over medium heat until done, brushing on the oil mixture liberally throughout cooking time.
• Cut the bread open length-wise, brush it with the oil, then lightly toast on the grill.
• Layer on the onions and mushrooms. Press sandwich together for a few minutes (I usually use a frying pan to weigh it down).
• Cut into 6 pieces or so and serve.

Steps:

• Slice the stems off the mushrooms so they can lay completely flat. Slice each cap in half to form 8 round slices.
• Spray a large nonstick grill pan with cooking spray and preheat over medium high heat.
• Top the bottom half of the mushrooms with tomatoes and cheese. Cap with remaining mushroom rounds. Brush the top sides of each sandwich with oil. Place mushroom sandwiches in the pan oil side down and cook for 2 minutes. Brush the top with oil, flip and cook for 2 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Arrange mushrooms in a shallow glass dish. In a bowl whisk together lemon juice, vinegar, garlic and salt and pepper to taste. Add the oil, a little at a time, whisking until combined well. Stir in the herbs. Pour dressing over mushrooms, turning to coat, and marinate for 15 minutes. Heat grill pan until hot. Add mushrooms and grill for 3 minutes on each side, basting with marinade, or until just firm.
