PESTO-STUFFED GRILLED PORTOBELLOS



Pesto-Stuffed Grilled Portobellos image

Pesto-stuffed grilled portobellos make for the perfect summer outdoor meal. It stands alone as vegetarian fare if you serve it with fresh fruit (such as watermelon chunks and blueberries); I love it with cedar-plank grilled salmon as well. You will think you've died and gone to heaven.

PORTOBELLO PESTO PIZZA



Portobello Pesto Pizza image

I found this on a blog called "A Dash of Sugar and Spice" and I'm posting for safe keeping. I think I'll make it some weekend my husband is at camp because he doesn't eat mushrooms! It's a good vegetarian dish that could easily go carnivore with the addition of chicken.

Time 27m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 lb baby portabella mushrooms or 1 lb cremini mushroom, sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup pesto sauce (homemade or store-bought)
8 ounces provolone cheese, shredded
2 tomatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick and deseeded
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 refrigerated pizza dough (unbaked. Or use your favorite homemade recipe)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500.
  • While the oven is preheating, melt the butter over medium heat in a skillet.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released all of their liquid and are soft and browned, 10 to 15 minutes; set aside.
  • Flour a 12" pizza pan and roll out dough on pan. Brush lightly with olive oil.
  • Spread the pesto over the pizza dough, leaving a 1/2 inch border uncovered.
  • Spread the mushrooms evenly over the pesto, and then top with the provolone cheese.
  • Top with sliced tomatoes, spacing them evenly around the pizza, then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  • Slide the dough onto the heated stone, or place your baking sheet or pizza pan into the oven.
  • Bake until the crust is golden brown, and cheese is bubbling, 8-12 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven, slice and serve.
