Categories     side-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large portobello mushroom caps
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling, plus 1/4 cup
Steak seasoning blend, such as Montreal Steak Seasoning, or coarse salt and black pepper
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley, chopped
1 cup Italian bread crumbs
1/2 cup shredded or grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill pan over medium high to high heat.
  • Scrape the gills off the underside of portobello mushroom caps with a spoon. Brush caps gently with a damp cloth to clean them. Drizzle caps with oil to keep them from sticking to the grill pan and season the caps with steak seasoning or salt and black pepper.
  • Grill mushrooms 3 or 4 minutes on each side under a loose tin foil tent until just tender. Remove from heat and cool 5 minutes.
  • Slice grilled caps into 1/2-inch strips. Turn strips in egg, then coat in mixture of parsley, bread crumbs and cheese. Cook "fries" over medium high heat in enough extra-virgin olive oil to coat a nonstick skillet in a thin layer, about 1/4 cup. "Fries" will brown in 2 or 3 minutes on each side.

Tips:

  • Choose large portobello mushrooms for best results.
  • Slice the mushrooms evenly so they cook evenly.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the mushrooms, as a dull knife can tear them.
  • Coat the mushrooms in a mixture of flour, cornstarch, salt, and pepper to help them crisp up.
  • Use a light hand when breading the mushrooms, as too much breading can make them soggy.
  • Fry the mushrooms in hot oil until golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the portobello mushroom fries immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Portobello mushroom fries are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional potato fries. They are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and they make a great snack or appetizer. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make these fries at home in no time. So next time you are looking for a healthier fry option, give portobello mushroom fries a try!
