Grilled Portobello Mushroom Burgers with Romesco, Manchego and Arugula

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 4 portobello mushroom caps stems removed
  • Olive oil
  • Sea salt
  • 1 small red onion thinly sliced
  • 4 slices young manchego or mild cheddar cheese
  • 4 burger buns
  • 1/2 cup romesco sauce
  • 1 handful baby arugula

Instructions

  • Fire up a gass or charcoal grill or indoor grill pan.
  • Brush the mushroom caps with olive oil and season with salt. Grill over medium-high heat until soft and nicely browned, about 5 to 8 minutes. Set aside under foil.
  • Brush the onion slices with the oil and season with salt. Grill over medium-high heat until charred and soft, about 3 minutes. Set aside under foil.
  • Grill the burger buns until toasty, about 2 minutes.
  • When ready to serve, return the mushrooms to the grill over medium-low heat and top with the cheese slices. Cover with the hood so the cheese can melt. Alternatively, if cooking indoors, place the mushrooms on a baking sheet and melt cheese under the broiler for 1 minutes.
  • Assemble the burgers: Slather the romesco sauce on both buns, top the bottom half with the mushroom cap, followed by the arugula. Sandwich together and serve with the remaining sauce on the side.
