Grilled Portobello Blue Cheese And Caramelized Onion Hoagie Recipes

GRILLED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• In a shallow baking dish, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, rosemary, garlic powder, black pepper, and cayenne. Taste and adjust seasonings if you like. Add the mushrooms and turn to coat. Let sit for 5 minutes on one side, then flip and let sit 5 additional minutes. While the mushrooms marinate, prep the grill and anything you'd like to serve with them. You can let them sit for up to 30 minutes, so feel free to take your time-the longer they sit, the more intense the flavor will be.
• Heat a grill or a large skillet over medium heat (about 350 to 400 degrees F). Brush the grill with oil to prevent sticking. Remove the mushrooms from the bowl, shaking off any excess marinade and reserving the marinade for basting. Cook on each side for 3-4 minutes, or until caramelized and deep golden brown. Brush the remaining marinade over the mushrooms several times as they cook.
• To serve, top the portobello mushrooms with the avocado sauce or any topping you like.

CARAMELIZED ONION GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with the thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are browned and tender, about 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of the Dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon water to coat the onions. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Heat a griddle over medium heat.
• Buzz the Cheddar, Gruyere, Robiola, prosecco, parsley, garlic and remaining 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard in a food processor until combined but still chunky and spreadable. Evenly spread the cheese mixture over one side of each slice of bread. Top 2 slices with the onion mixture and then sandwich the onions with the other 2 slices, cheese-side in. Spread the remaining butter on the outside of each sandwich and season with salt and pepper. Griddle the sandwiches over medium heat until golden brown on the first side, about 5 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until the cheese is melted and the exteriors are crispy, about 5 minutes more.

SUPREME HOAGIE

Steps:

• Place opened roll onto a clean work surface. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, vinegar, and basil. Drizzle the vinegar mixture on the inside top half of the roll. On the bottom half of the roll, layer ingredients in the following order: lettuce, beef, turkey, ham, tomato, onion, peppers, and pickles. Crown with the top roll.

CARAMELIZED ONIONS, CABRALES BLUE CHEESE AND WILD MUSHROOM FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Heat butter and olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add onions and sugar and cook slowly until soft and caramelized. Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over high heat. Add the mushrooms and saute until golden brown and cooked down. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Preheat grill. Flatten the dough, brush liberally with olive oil and throw on the grill. Grill on one side until golden brown, turn over spread with the mozzarella, onions and mushrooms and blue cheese.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO BURGER WITH ONION JAM

Steps:

• Put the yogurt in a paper towel-lined strainer set over a bowl, set aside to drain and thickened, about 60 minutes. Discard the watery liquid. Whisk the horseradish into the thickened yogurt.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium skillet, over medium heat. Add the onions, 1 thyme sprig, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, covered, until the onions have wilted, about 10 to 15 minutes, (give them a stir every now and then with a wooden spoon to prevent them from sticking). Add the red wine, and simmer over high heat until most of the wine gets absorbed into the onions. Add the honey and red wine vinegar and simmer gently until the onions get jam-like, about, about 15 minutes.
• Preheat a stove top grill pan over medium-high heat. Whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, garlic, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl. Strip and add the leaves from the remaining sprig of thyme. Coat the mushroom caps all over with the flavored olive oil. Grill the mushrooms, turning as needed, until tender but not mushy about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Season with the salt and pepper.
• Sandwich the mushroom between the buns, top with some of the onion jam, some lettuce, and a dollop of the horseradish cream. Serve warm.

SMOKED ITALIAN SAUSAGE HOAGIE

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-low heat. Use a 2-stage fire or indirect heat setup on your gas grill. Add the soaked applewood chips to a smoker box and place the box directly onto the heating element or coals. Once plumes of smoke appear, place the sausage links over the indirectly heated side of the grill and smoke for about 1 hour, flipping halfway through. The internal temperature of the sausages when tested with a meat thermometer should read 160 degrees F at this point. Move the sausages to the hot side of the grill and give them a char on the outside for 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, skewer the onion quarters on metal or wooden skewers. Place the bell peppers and onions on the hot side of the grill and cook until charred on all sides, 20 to 30 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Remove the majority of the skin and all of the seeds and stems of the peppers and give them a rough chop along with the charred onions. Place both into a food processor along with the olive oil and garlic and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Top a roll with a hot sausage followed by a nice smear of the smoked pepper spread, a sprinkle of ricotta salata and a couple of slices of pepperoncini. Serve immediately.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO, BLUE CHEESE AND CARAMELIZED ONION HOAGIE

Steps:

• For the mushrooms: In a large bowl or a ziptop bag, whisk the olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, garlic powder and lemon juice. Add the mushrooms and toss to combine. Marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• For the onions: While the mushrooms marinate, make the onions. In a large skillet over medium high, heat the olive oil. Add the onions and saute until beginning to get tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions become a deep brown caramelized color, about 20 minutes. If they start to look dry or stick to the pan, add a tablespoon or 2 of water.
• For the blue cheese spread: In a small bowl, mix the blue cheese and mayonnaise.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Remove the mushrooms from the marinade and transfer to the grill pan. Cook until slightly wilted, browned and showing grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• For the sandwiches: Put the hoagie rolls on the grill pan until lightly toasted. Spread one side of each roll with the blue cheese spread. Top with some mushrooms, caramelized onions and arugula. Drizzle lightly with balsamic vinegar and a sprinkle of salt.
