Categories     Main Course     Side Dish

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 large portobello mushrooms (stems and gills removed, wiped clean)
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, plus additional to taste)
Canola or vegetable oil (for grilling)
Optional for serving: Herby Avocado Sauce; these also make delicious mushroom burgers

Steps:

  • In a shallow baking dish, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, rosemary, garlic powder, black pepper, and cayenne. Taste and adjust seasonings if you like. Add the mushrooms and turn to coat. Let sit for 5 minutes on one side, then flip and let sit 5 additional minutes. While the mushrooms marinate, prep the grill and anything you'd like to serve with them. You can let them sit for up to 30 minutes, so feel free to take your time-the longer they sit, the more intense the flavor will be.
  • Heat a grill or a large skillet over medium heat (about 350 to 400 degrees F). Brush the grill with oil to prevent sticking. Remove the mushrooms from the bowl, shaking off any excess marinade and reserving the marinade for basting. Cook on each side for 3-4 minutes, or until caramelized and deep golden brown. Brush the remaining marinade over the mushrooms several times as they cook.
  • To serve, top the portobello mushrooms with the avocado sauce or any topping you like.

1 medium onion, chopped
1 small carrot, peeled and finely chopped or grated
1 small rib celery, finely chopped
3 to 4 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 fresh bay leaf
1 (10-ounce) box organic chopped frozen spinach, defrosted and wrung dry in kitchen towel

1/4 cup tomato paste
1 cup dry white wine
1 cup whole milk
1 pound pappardelle or fettuccine pasta
A handful fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Place the dried mushrooms in small pot and cover with water or chicken stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and steep.
  • Heat a heavy pot over medium to medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan extra-virgin olive oil. When hot, add the butter and melt into the oil then add portabellas. After 6 minutes, add the onions, carrots, celery, garlic, and bay leaf. Saute until tender, 15 minutes, then separate and add spinach. Season the spinach mixture with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Stir in the tomato paste and cook 1 minute. Deglaze with wine. Remove the dried mushrooms from the steeping liquid. Chop the mushrooms and stir into the sauce.
