Bell Pepper Gratin With Fennel And Portobello Mushrooms Recipes

PORTOBELLO GRATIN

Steps:

• Split 6 portobello mushroom caps to make 12 thin rounds. Toss 1 1/4 cups shredded muenster cheese, 1/3 cup breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, 1 grated garlic clove, and salt and pepper. Layer the portobello rounds and cheese mixture in a baking dish, making 3 layers of each. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons water, cover with foil and bake at 400 degrees F, 35 minutes. Uncover and bake 8 more minutes.

FENNEL WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• In a large cold skillet, combine the oil, the garlic and the onion. Set heat to medium and saute for a few minutes. When the skillet is fragrant, add the fennel and mushrooms. Saute, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender crisp and the mushrooms are softened, about 10 minutes. Enjoy!

INDIVIDUAL PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM GRATINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet. Arrange the portobello caps, gill sides down, on the sheet. Bake until tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool. Preheat the broiler.
• Stir together the cheese, bread crumbs, 1 tablespoon parsley, 1 tablespoon chives, and 1 tablespoon oil; set aside.
• Chop the portobello stems into 1/2-inch pieces. Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the shallots; cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and chopped stems; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the wine; cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cream, remaining 2 tablespoons each parsley and chives, and the salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
• Arrange the portobello caps, gill sides up, on a clean baking sheet. Divide the mushroom mixture and then the crumb mixture among the caps. Broil until bubbling and golden brown, about 2 minutes.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS, SWEET PEPPERS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Prepare barbeque (medium-high heat). Whisk vinegar, oil, thyme and lemon peel in large bowl to blend well. Season vinaigrette to taste with salt and pepper.
• Brush vinaigrette over vegetables. Grill until mushrooms are tender and juicy, and peppers and onions are crisp-tender, about 12 minutes per side.
• Cut mushrooms and peppers into 1/2-inch-thick strips. Toss mushrooms, peppers and onions in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Serve at room temperature.

PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add leeks and celery root and cook for 10 minutes. Add mushroom pieces, 1/2 of the tarragon, and 1/2 of the chives; continue cooking until mushrooms give off liquid, about 6 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, combine bread crumbs and Gruyere cheese in a mixing bowl.
• Add flour to the frying pan with the mushroom mixture. Add cream in a stream and stir until it becomes an even color, about 3 minutes. Add 1/2 of the bread crumb mixture and stir until cheese starts to melt, about 2 minutes. Turn off heat. Transfer mixture to a baking dish and top with remaining tarragon, chives, and bread crumb mixture. Add a small amount of water to moisten the mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is bubbly, about 10 minutes.
• Use a spatula to scoop portions and serve immediately.

BELL PEPPER GRATIN WITH FENNEL AND PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Place halved bell peppers cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook portobello mushrooms and fennel until fennel is golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Add garlic during the last minute of cooking.
• Remove roasted bell peppers from oven and increase oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Chop bell peppers into pieces and add to the mushroom mixture in the skillet. Mix flour into the skillet. Pour in cream in a steady stream and stir until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Mix in 1/2 of the Gruyere cheese. Remove from heat and stir until cheese has melted.
• Add 1/2 of the vegetable saute mixture to a baking dish. Sprinkle with a couple of tablespoons Gruyere cheese and season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Add the remainder of the vegetable mixture and add chicken broth to prevent the gratin from creating air bubbles. Top with remaining Gruyere cheese, Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Garnish with fennel fronds.
• Bake in the preheated oven until gratin is bubbly and golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes.

GRILLED MUSHROOMS, FENNEL, AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Remove stems from mushrooms and use for stock or salad. Cut baby fennel bulbs in half; if using large bulbs, cut into 1/2-inch-thick lengthwise slices. Quarter each pepper lengthwise, and seed.
• Toss vegetables with olive oil, garlic, and pepper, using just enough oil to coat them lightly.
• Start a medium-size charcoal fire; when coals are medium hot, place grid as close to them as possible. Place mushrooms on hottest part of grill, gill side down. Turn after 3 to 5 minutes. Cook until caps fill with juice, then remove from grill and season with salt and herbs, if desired.
• Repeat with fennel and peppers, but cook on a cooler part of grill. Avoid charring fennel before inside has softened; it should take 10 to 15 minutes to cook. Serve hot or at room temperature.

ROASTED RED PEPPERS AND PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Lightly spray the mushrooms with olive oil spray. Lightly spray a large indoor grill pan or grill rack with olive oil spray. Heat the pan for several minutes over medium-high heat or preheat the grill on medium high.
• Grill the mushrooms for about 30 minutes, or until juicy. (The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the mushrooms. If you cook them too long, they will dry out.) Transfer to a cutting board. Slice to the desired thickness.
• In a large bowl, stir together the mushrooms and roasted peppers.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar and sugar until the sugar is dissolved. Pour over the mushroom mixture. Stir gently. Serve at room temperature.
