Tips for Grilling Portobellos with Arugula
* To ensure the portobellos absorb the marinade well, make sure to marinate them for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. * Before grilling, remove the excess marinade from the portobellos to prevent flare-ups. * Grill the portobellos over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are tender and slightly charred. * To prevent the arugula from wilting, add it to the salad just before serving. * For a more flavorful salad, use a variety of greens, such as spinach, kale, or mixed salad greens. * To add a touch of sweetness to the salad, try adding some roasted butternut squash or sweet potato. * For a more savory salad, add some crumbled bacon or blue cheese.Conclusion
