Best Roasted Fingerlings With Cremini Mushrooms Recipes

SUNNY'S ROASTED FINGERLINGS AND MUSHROOMS WITH A MUSTARD CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce: In a medium saucepot set over medium heat, add the wine, bell peppers and shallots. Stirring constantly, cook until the shallots and peppers soak up the wine and the wine evaporates, about 5 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Add the cream, mustard and lemon zest. Increase the heat slightly, and continue to cook and stir until the liquid slightly reduces and thickens, about 8 more minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley.
• For the fingerlings and mushrooms: Place a large baking sheet in the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large pot, add the potatoes, a nice pinch of salt and cover with an inch of water. Bring to a boil and boil the potatoes for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the potatoes to sit for 5 more minutes. Drain and air-dry the potatoes.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven and quickly scatter half of the rosemary and thyme on it. Arrange the potatoes and mushrooms over the herbs. Spritz the entire baking sheet with the lemon juice and drizzle everything lightly with the olive oil. Place the remaining herbs over the top. Roast until the potatoes are tender and the mushrooms are darker in color and tender, 30 to 35 minutes, tossing halfway through.
• Remove the herbs and serve warm, at room temperature or chilled, with a drizzle of the sauce, served at the same temperature as the dish.

ROASTED CREMINI MUSHROOMS WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toss the mushrooms with a pinch of salt and nestle stemmed-side up in a small baking dish so the mushrooms are touching.
• Put the butter, parsley and garlic in a small bowl and mash with a fork until well mixed. Evenly divide the butter between each cap. Drizzle the oil over the mushrooms.
• Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the butter has melted, about 20 minutes. Top with a few grinds of pepper and serve warm.

SALT-CRUSTED FINGERLINGS

Steps:

• In a heavy-bottomed, wide saute pan over high heat, add the potatoes and just barely cover with cold water. Add the olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, thyme and bay leaves. Bring to a boil and then simmer uncovered until just tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Lower the heat and continue to cook, keeping a watchful eye, so the water evaporates completely and the potatoes are left covered in salt, about 30 minutes. Once the water has evaporated, cook for 3 to 4 minutes, lightly tossing; the oil left in the pan will help prevent the potatoes from sticking. Remove the potatoes from the pan, discard the herbs and garlic and serve.

ROASTED TURKEY SANDWICH WITH CREMINI AND TRUFFLE

Steps:

• For the brine: Combine the honey, salt, bay leaves, garlic, rosemary, thyme, red pepper flakes and 1 cup water in a large saucepot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Turn off the heat and add the ice cubes. Place the turkey and brine into a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Remove from the brine and pat dry with paper towels.
• For the herb-roasted turkey breast: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Combine the garlic, parsley, rosemary, thyme, lemon zest, olive oil, salt and black pepper in a small mixing bowl and mix well. Rub the turkey all over with the herb-olive oil mixture to completely cover.
• Place the turkey in a large cast-iron skillet and roast for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 300 degrees F and cook until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F, 75 minutes to 90 minutes. Cover with foil if the turkey starts to get too dark. Let the turkey rest for 10 minutes. Reserve all the juices from the bottom of the skillet.
• Shred the turkey when cool enough to handle and reserve.
• For the grilled cremini mushrooms: Preheat a grill to high. Add the creminis, olive oil, thyme, salt and pepper to a medium mixing bowl and toss well to coat. Place the creminis on the grill and char on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Reserve the mushrooms.
• For the garlic butter: In a medium saucepan, combine the butter and garlic over medium heat and cook until the garlic becomes fragrant, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the parsley and mix well. Transfer to a small bowl and reserve.
• For the sandwiches: Increase the oven to 425 degrees F. In the same pan the turkey was roasted in, heat the flour and 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat, whisking together to make a roux. Cook, whisking often, for 5 minutes. Stir in the wine, then add the cremini mushrooms and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until the gravy is reduced by half, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and shredded turkey in a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Let the turkey crisp in the pan, 2 to 3 minutes. Lightly brush the rolls with the garlic butter and toast in the oven until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Spoon 1 tablespoon black truffle paste on a roll. Top with 2 ounces of the sliced truffle gouda laid from end to end, a quarter of the crisped turkey and some arugula. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the gravy over the roasted turkey. Make 3 more sandwiches with the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately with extra gravy on the side.
