Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large portobello mushrooms (4-to-5-inch caps), stems removed
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
6 ounces provolone, thinly sliced (about 8 slices)
1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 large egg, whisked
1 cup panko
Vegetable oil, for frying
Garlic-Vinegar Mayonnaise
4 brioche buns, halved and toasted
1 cup packed baby arugula

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Brush both sides of mushrooms with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Arrange mushrooms, gill-sides down, on sheet and roast, flipping once, until tender, 22 to 25 minutes. Let cool, then transfer to a cutting board, gill-sides down. Butterfly each by cutting horizontally through middle of cap, leaving one side intact. Open flaps and add cheese (if necessary, fold to fit.) Close flaps and gently press to seal with your palm.
  • Place flour, egg, and panko in separate shallow bowls. Dip each stuffed mushroom in flour, then egg, turning to coat and shaking off excess. Then dip in panko, pressing to adhere.
  • Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a large straight-sided skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium until a panko crumb sizzles when tossed in. Working in two batches, cook mushrooms until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • Transfer mushrooms to a wire rack set over a baking sheet; season with salt. Spread mayonnaise on buns. Top with mushroom burgers and arugula. Serve immediately.

CHEESY, STUFFED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM BURGERS



Cheesy, Stuffed Portobello Mushroom Burgers image

Mushrooms are wonderful and, these days, they are getting called upon to play so many different parts. One of the most popular things is to use mushrooms as a substitute for meat. It works well because they have such wonderful texture and heartiness. The portobello is the top dog of the cultivated mushroom world because it's large and can be a meal unto itself. They are cultivated mushrooms (as opposed to wild, foraged kinds) and are earthy and meaty. Regarding mushrooms in general: Wash them just before cooking (if they are dirty) so they are clean but don't sit around, waterlogged, in your fridge. Many people scrape the brown "ribs" out of the insides of the portobello and peel the outer skin. Why? I say leave everything on the mushroom (except dirt). Make sure you cook mushrooms long enough-they take longer than you think to reach full flavor.

Time 1h

Yield 2 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 large portobello mushrooms, wiped of any dirt
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
6 large garlic cloves
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided use
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
3/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
8 basil leaves, torn
2 to 4 iceberg lettuce leaves
Sliced dill pickles and pickle juice, for serving
Red wine vinegar, to drizzle
2 burger buns, buttered and toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
  • Roast the mushrooms: Arrange the mushrooms, stem side up, onions and garlic cloves in a single layer on 1 prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with half of the olive oil. Drizzle 1/2 cup water around the mushrooms on the baking sheet. Season generously with salt and pepper. Roast in the center of the oven until the mushrooms shrink in size and become darker brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove and let cool.
  • Bread the mushrooms: In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with a splash of water. In another medium bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with the granulated garlic. Dip each mushroom in the egg mixture and then coat completely with the breadcrumbs. Reserve everything.
  • Fry the mushrooms: In a large skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat until it begins to smoke. Add the mushrooms in a single layer. Cook on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side until golden brown, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the oil and arrange in a single layer on a clean baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the roasted garlic cloves and onion slices with the cheese. Add any remaining egg and 1/4 cup of the breadcrumbs leftover from the breading. Add the basil and mix well.
  • Assemble and bake: On the same baking sheet, place 2 portobellos, stem-side up, with some distance between them. Pile half of the filling on each and then top with the remaining mushrooms, pressing gently but firmly down, so it forms a fairly compact sandwich. Bake until the cheese melts, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Arrange the lettuce to form 2 cups. Drizzle some pickle juice and red wine vinegar into the cups. Season with salt and pepper and then top with some sliced pickles.
  • Place each mushroom burger onto a bottom bun. Flip a lettuce cup onto each burger and top with the top bun. Serve.

PESTO-STUFFED PORTOBELLO BURGERS



Pesto-Stuffed Portobello Burgers image

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, easy, for two, lunch, quick, weekday, burgers, main course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large portobello mushrooms (about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (1 tablespoon for the pan)
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 tablespoons finely chopped basil
4 heaped tablespoons pesto
Salt
Freshly ground pepper
Hamburger buns for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Carefully remove the stems from the portobellos and scoop out the gills using a spoon. In a large bowl, toss the portobellos with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, pepper, crushed garlic and chopped basil. Marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Heat remaining oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the portobellos (in batches if necessary), rounded side down, and cook 7 minutes. Flip the mushrooms over and cook another 5 to 7 minutes. The mushrooms should be releasing liquid. Flip over again so the cavity is up, and spread a heaped tablespoon of pesto in each cavity. Cook another 2 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and juicy and the pesto is warm. The mushrooms will release more liquid into the pan, then the liquid will evaporate. Serve on hamburger buns if desired.
