Portobello Burgers 1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for grates 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar 3 garlic cloves, minced Coarse salt and ground pepper 1 red bell pepper (ribs and seeds removed), cut into 4 equal pieces 8 portobello mushrooms (about 1 pound total), stems removed 4 hamburger buns 5 ounces fresh goat cheese, cut into 4 equal slices 4 lettuce leaves 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. Back to Dinner Recipes |
