Thread: Grilled Portabella Mushrooms

Grilled Portabella Mushrooms (Post #1)

Ingredients:
1 pound portabella mushrooms
1 tablespoon light miso
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons olive oil
10 ounces fresh spinach, stemmed and rinsed

Prepare a grill.

Carefully brush or wipe off any soil form the mushrooms. Trim the tough portions of the stems and cut the mushrooms into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Whisk together the miso, vinegar, water, and oil. Brush the mushroom slices with the marinade and place them on a grill for about 3 minutes each side until the mushrooms are browned and beginning to soften.

Meanwhile, steam the spinach in a covered pot on high heat, using only the water clinging to its leaves, for 1 or 2 minutes, or until just wilted but still bright green.

Spread the steamed spinach on a serving platter, arrange the mushrooms on top and serve right away.
