Recipe – Roasted Portabello Mushroom

While yPortabello and pestoou can cook portabellos on the stovetop, to get that firm “meatiness”, roasting is definitely the preferred method. Simple and delicious. All it need then is a little rice and some sauteed veggies. Here we show it with cilantro pesto and pine nuts. Click here for cilantro pesto recipe.

Place portabellos on a sheet pan top down. On each cap, add 1 T extra virgin olive oil, 1/8 t salt, 1 t balsamic vinegar and a pinch of black pepper. Roast at 375 for 7-12 minutes, turning the pan after 5 minutes.
