Portobello Mushroom Burger Paula Deen Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• Brush mushrooms caps with olive oil; sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper. Grill mushrooms, smooth side down, covered with grill lid, for 6 to 8 minutes, or until tender.
• In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, pesto, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Spread mixture evenly over cut sides of buns.
• Divide arugula evenly over bottom halves of buns.
• Top each evenly with peppers.
• Place mushrooms caps over peppers. Cover with tops of buns.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
• Roast the mushrooms: Arrange the mushrooms, stem side up, onions and garlic cloves in a single layer on 1 prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with half of the olive oil. Drizzle 1/2 cup water around the mushrooms on the baking sheet. Season generously with salt and pepper. Roast in the center of the oven until the mushrooms shrink in size and become darker brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• Bread the mushrooms: In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with a splash of water. In another medium bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with the granulated garlic. Dip each mushroom in the egg mixture and then coat completely with the breadcrumbs. Reserve everything.
• Fry the mushrooms: In a large skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat until it begins to smoke. Add the mushrooms in a single layer. Cook on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side until golden brown, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the oil and arrange in a single layer on a clean baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
• Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the roasted garlic cloves and onion slices with the cheese. Add any remaining egg and 1/4 cup of the breadcrumbs leftover from the breading. Add the basil and mix well.
• Assemble and bake: On the same baking sheet, place 2 portobellos, stem-side up, with some distance between them. Pile half of the filling on each and then top with the remaining mushrooms, pressing gently but firmly down, so it forms a fairly compact sandwich. Bake until the cheese melts, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Arrange the lettuce to form 2 cups. Drizzle some pickle juice and red wine vinegar into the cups. Season with salt and pepper and then top with some sliced pickles.
• Place each mushroom burger onto a bottom bun. Flip a lettuce cup onto each burger and top with the top bun. Serve.

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:

• Coat the mushrooms, bell peppers, and onion with cooking spray.
• Grill onion, covered with grill lid, over medium high heat(350* to 400*) 8 minutes on each side. Grill mushroom 5 minutes on each side(or you may roast in a 425*F. oven). Place bell peppers on grill, skin side down, and grill 4-5 minutes or until skin is blistered(if you can't find fresh red bell peppers, you can buy them already roasted in jars). See note.
• Peel the bell peppers, and cut into strips.
• Avocado Mayonnaise: Process all ingredients in a food processor until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. Cover and chill 2 hours, if desired. Makes 1 cup.
• Spread the avocado mayonniase on cut sides of buns: place on cooking grate, and grill 1 minute. Place mushrooms, bell pepper strips, and onion evenly on bottom halves of buns. Top each with avoado slices and top bun halves.
• Note: To grill onion, push water soaked skewers crosswise through the whole onion at 1/2" intervals. Slice between skewers and place skewered slcies on grill.
