4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/3 cup olive oil
1 pound fresh Portobello mushrooms, stems trimmed
Olive oil for skillet
1 red pepper, roasted, peeled, seeded and chopped coarsely

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Juice of 1 lemon

Steps:

In a small bowl, whisk together marinade ingredients. Arrange mushroom caps in a single layer in a non- reactive shallow pan. Pour marinade over mushrooms, cover and marinate for 1 hour, turning mushrooms several times.
Using a blender, blend vinaigrette ingredients until smooth. Taste for seasoning.
Heat a clean griddle or skillet and wipe down with an oiled cloth. Remove mushrooms from marinade, place in skillet and use a weight to press down on them. Sear them about 1 minute on each side, or until tender. Transfer mushrooms to a cutting board, slice thin and drizzle with red pepper vinaigrette.
