PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM BURGER WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS
Portobello mushroom burgers are on of my family's favorite things to make, especially in the summer. They're great for barbecues and get togethers and are relatively simple to throw together. If you or friends do happen to be grilling, the portobellos can also easily be thrown on the grill. The marinade is made with very minimal ingredients (just dijon mustard, white wine, pepper, and LOTS of garlic). My favorite toppings include caramelized onions, arugula, sliced tomatoes, and even avocado. If you do opt to make caramelized onions, my recommendation would be to make extras and keep in the fridge for other dishes!

Steps:
- Combine the white wine, dijon mustard, pepper, and garlic in a bowl or pyrex large enough the fit all of the portobello mushrooms.
- Add the portobellos to the marinade and swish around to ensure they are evenly coated. At this point you can allow to marinate overnight or just rest for a few minutes depending on how much time you're working with.
- Meanwhile thinly slice the onions and bring a nonstick pan to medium heat with avocado oil. Add the onions and stir every so often, cooking until caramelized (around 30-40 minutes).
- Heat a large cast iron pan on medium-high heat with a bit of avocado oil and add the portobellos to the pan. Let cook for around 3-5 minutes on each side until golden.
- Add any leftover marinade to the pan and allow the mushrooms to keep cooking. After a minute or two add some more white wine or water to deglaze the pan. Cover and cook gill side down for 5 more minutes or until collapsed.
- To serve, toast your buns and add chipotle aioli to both sides. Top with the portobello mushroom, arugula, tomato, and caramelized onions. (If you want to simplify, you can skip the chipotle aioli and add dijon mustard to your buns).

Steps:
- Preheat the broiler. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onions, 1 tablespoon fresh thyme or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are deep golden brown and caramelized, about 15 minutes. If the skillet gets too brown, add 2 tablespoons water and scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon; continue to cook until all the water has evaporated. Add 1 tablespoon of the Worcestershire and stir until completely absorbed, about 1 minute more.
- Meanwhile, place the muffins or buns on the prepared baking sheet and broil until toasted and browned along the edges, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside for serving.
- Put the mushroom caps, gill-side up, on the same baking sheet. Broil until they release their juices and soften slightly, about 6 minutes. Flip the mushrooms, brush the tops with the oil and season with the garlic salt. Broil until lightly browned and the juices have cooked off, about 6 minutes more. Top each mushroom with 1/4 cup cheese, then return to the broiler until the cheese melts, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
- While the mushrooms are broiling, stir together the mayonnaise, garlic, remaining 1 teaspoon fresh thyme or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire in a small bowl until smooth. Season with a pinch of kosher salt and pepper. Spread on the inside of the toasted muffin or bun tops. Place 1 portobello mushroom on each muffin or bun bottom. Layer with the caramelized onions and crispy fried onions, then close the burgers and serve.

PORTOBELLO BURGER WITH MUFFULETTA TOPPING
A tasty tomato-olive mixture, melty cheese and smoky grilled mushroom add so much flavor to this recipe that one taster called it "one of the best mushroom burgers I've had." For a change, switch another cheese or spinach for the provolone and lettuce. -Tamra Duncan, Lincoln, Arkansas

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.
Tips:
- Choose the right mushrooms. Portobello mushrooms are the best choice for this recipe because they are large and meaty. They also have a mild flavor that will not overpower the other ingredients.
- Cook the mushrooms properly. Portobello mushrooms should be cooked until they are tender but still have a little bit of a bite to them. If you overcook them, they will become tough and chewy.
- Caramelize the onions. Caramelizing the onions brings out their natural sweetness and gives them a rich, deep flavor. Be patient and cook the onions over low heat until they are golden brown.
- Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the most important ingredients in this recipe, so don't skimp on quality. Use a cheese that melts well and has a lot of flavor.
- Assemble the burgers carefully. Make sure to layer the ingredients evenly on the buns so that each bite is full of flavor.
Conclusion:
Portobello mushroom and onion burgers are a delicious and satisfying meal. They are perfect for a summer cookout or a casual weeknight dinner. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your burgers are cooked to perfection and full of flavor. So fire up the grill and get ready to enjoy a delicious portobello mushroom and onion burger!
