Roasted Portobello Mushroom Fettuccine Recipes

ROASTED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set it aside.
• Prepare the mushrooms for roasting: Fill a small bowl with water. Wet a kitchen sponge (or a sheet of paper towel) in the bowl and squeeze out any excess water. Gently wipe the large mushroom caps to remove any dirt and debris.
• Remove the gills and the stem: Turn the mushrooms upside down and place one in the palm of your hand. Using a paring knife, slice off the mushroom's inner edges while slowly rotating its cap. Then, use a small spoon to gently scrape the mushroom's gills. Be careful not to dig too deep into the flesh of the mushroom. Continue working around the mushroom until you remove all of the gills. Remove the stem by gently twisting it from the bottom. Continue with the remaining mushrooms.
• Brush with oil and season: Place the portobello mushrooms on the parchment-lined sheet. Lightly brush each mushroom with approximately ½ teaspoon olive oil and season them with ¼ teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper on both sides. If you do not have a brush, you can also use a vegetable oil cooking spray to lightly coat them with oil.
• Roast in the oven: Arrange the mushrooms on the baking sheet with the gills side facing down. Bake them in the oven for 10 minutes, flip them, and then bake them for another 5-7 minutes.
• Serve while they are still warm.

MARINATED ROASTED PORTOBELLOS

Steps:

• Use a spoon to remove the gills from the underside of the mushrooms. Put the mushrooms in a small baking dish.
• Combine the oil, red pepper flakes, sugar, thyme and garlic in a small saucepot and heat until bubbling and aromatic. Pour the warm oil over the mushrooms, add 1/4 teaspoon salt and toss gently to coat. Cover and marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Arrange the mushrooms on a baking pan and roast until browned and tender, about 30 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a serving plate and drizzle with the liquid from the pan.

ROASTED PORTOBELLOS WITH PESTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove the stems of the mushrooms, and carefully scrape away the gills using a spoon. Toss with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place, rounded side down, on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Place in the oven and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, until the mushrooms are beginning to soften and throw off liquid. Remove from the heat and fill with the pesto. Return to the oven and continue to roast until thoroughly softened, about 10 more minutes.

SHEET-PAN MUSHROOM PARMIGIANA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Arrange the cherry tomatoes on a sheet pan, along with half the garlic, and drizzle with 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and toss to coat the tomatoes.
• To the sheet pan, add the mushroom caps in between the tomatoes, gill side up, and drizzle each generously with olive oil. (Don't skimp here, as the olive oil will add lots of rich flavor.) Scatter the mushrooms with the remaining garlic, and season each mushroom with salt and black pepper. Fill each mushroom with marinara sauce, and top with cheese. Place in the oven and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly and golden.
• Meanwhile, heat a medium skillet over medium-high. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and add the bread crumbs, basil and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Stir constantly for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden. Remove from heat immediately and transfer to a bowl or jar.
• To serve, transfer mushrooms to serving plates, along with a few of the roasted cherry tomatoes. Top each mushroom with the basil bread crumbs and scatter with a few basil leaves.

PASTA WITH PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Trim hard parts from mushrooms and discard. Rinse mushrooms quickly to remove grit; cut caps into slices and stems into small chunks. Combine in a medium skillet with 1 clove garlic (crushed and peeled), thyme, olive oil and some salt and pepper. Cook over sufficiently low heat so that mixture bubbles but mushrooms do not brown. Continue to cook, stirring infrequently, until they are quite shrunken in size and appear firm, 30 to 45 minutes. (At this point, you can pause for several hours before resuming cooking.) If you are using porcinis, soak them in hot water to cover for a few minutes so that they soften.
• Set a large pot of water to boil for pasta and salt it. Mince remaining garlic. Turn heat under oil to medium, and add garlic to the portobellos along with the drained porcinis. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic begins to color. Add tomatoes and raise heat to medium high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they break up and become saucy, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta until it is tender but not mushy. Taste sauce and adjust its seasoning. When pasta is done, drain it, toss with sauce, top with Parmesan, and serve.

ROASTED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS WITH BLUE CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven or toaster oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Place mushroom caps, gill side up, on baking sheet. Drizzle with soy sauce and add a few grinds of black pepper to each cap.
• Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven, and sprinkle 1 1/2 tablespoon blue cheese onto each cap. Return to oven and bake an additional 10 minutes, or until cheese is fully melted.
