Best Roasted Portobello Red Pepper And Arugula Salad For One Recipes

ROASTED PORTOBELLO, RED PEPPER, ARUGULA AND MOZZARELLA GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Cut off the stem inside the portobellos. With a spoon, scrape out and discard the dark gills. Place the mushrooms in a shallow pan, tops down. Pour 2 tablespoons of the dressing in each mushroom cavity and turn them over a few times so all sides are coated with the marinade.
• Heat the oven to 350° F. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high flame. Add a tablespoon of oil and swirl the pan so the oil coats the bottom of the pan with a thin film. Slip the mushrooms into the pan, tops down. Sear 5 minutes, or until they take on a rich golden tan. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper.
• Turn the mushrooms so the seared side is up. Place the skillet in the oven and roast 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer the mushrooms to a plate. Set aside the skillet, keeping the marinade and roasting juices in the pan.
• Slice the bread 1/2 inch thick. You'll need 4 (~8 x 3-inch) slices for this recipe. Cut the red pepper into 4 (2 ½ inch-wide) portions.
• Build the sandwiches. Arrange two slices of bread, each with 2 slices of mozzarella cheese. Top each slice of bread with 2 roasted mushrooms followed by 2 portions of red pepper. Scrunch as much arugula as you can manage over the peppers, and then top with the remaining cheese and bread.
• Return the skillet to the stovetop over medium-high flame. Melt a dollop of butter into the oil and vinegar marinade/mushroom juices remaining in the pan.
• Place the sandwiches in the skillet, pressing gently on the tops for a minute or so. Cook 3 or 4 minutes, until golden. Carefully flip the sandwich to the other side and cook another 3 or so minutes, until the cheese melts and the bread is crispy golden.
• Cut in half and serve immediately.
