Grilled Chimichurri Portobellos combine smoky, tender portobello mushrooms with a bright and herbaceous chimichurri sauce. This flavorful vegetarian dish works beautifully as a main course, side dish, or sandwich filling.

Ingredients

  • 4 large portobello mushroom caps
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Clean the portobello mushrooms and gently remove the stems.
  2. Brush both sides of the mushrooms with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  3. In a bowl, combine the parsley, cilantro, garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, oregano, salt, and black pepper to make the chimichurri sauce.
  4. Allow the chimichurri to sit for at least 10 minutes so the flavors can blend.
  5. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  6. Place the mushrooms gill-side down on the grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
  7. Flip and continue grilling for another 4 to 5 minutes, or until tender and lightly charred.
  8. Transfer the mushrooms to a serving platter.
  9. Spoon the chimichurri sauce generously over the grilled mushrooms.
  10. Allow the mushrooms to rest for a few minutes before serving.
  11. Serve warm as a main dish, side dish, or sandwich filling.

Notes

  • Traditional chimichurri can be made using only parsley if preferred.
  • Add sliced avocado or grilled vegetables for a more substantial meal.
  • Serve on toasted buns for a flavorful vegetarian burger.
  • Store mushrooms and chimichurri separately for best texture.
  • Chimichurri can be prepared up to 1 day in advance.
  • Use a grill pan or cast-iron skillet if outdoor grilling is unavailable.
