Time is always of the essence in our busy lives. So, what do you do when you want to create something different, very casual (finger food preferably), and you've had your fill of beef and chicken? This Portobello burger recipe includes very basic ingredients that you can cook up in about 8-10 minutes, pair it with some local corn or your "finger food" of choice and you've got a great summer weeknight dinner.
Portobello Skillet Burgers
Heat your stovetop skillet with a generous amount of Extra Virgin olive oil. When hot, place freshly sliced yellow onion rings into the pan. Then add sea salt and minced garlic. Now, drizzle balsamic vinegar around the skillet and place your Portobello mushrooms in, stem down. Reduce heat to medium/medium-low and cover. After about 3 minutes, flip the mushrooms and be sure the ingredients are blended around them. In the meantime, prepare your burger buns of choice with a slice of fresh tomato and a thin slice of sharp cheddar. (Place cheese on the bottom of roll.) After another 3 minutes, flip mushrooms back with the rounded side on top. Reduce heat to low, cover again and let simmer. At this point, the mushrooms will be a bit smaller but will absorb some of the flavoring. After another 3-5 minutes, you are ready to serve. Place on the buns and let the heat melt the cheese before serving.
You'll have a delicious, moist burger that is quite filling so have your appetite ready!
