- Cook the portobello mushrooms properly. Portobello mushrooms can be cooked in a variety of ways, but the most common methods are grilling, roasting, and sautéing. Be sure to cook the mushrooms until they are tender but still slightly firm.
- Serve the portobello mushrooms immediately. Portobello mushrooms are best served hot off the grill or out of the oven. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
