Ingredients

• 4 large portobello mushroom caps, stems removed and gills scraped
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 2 tsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• ½ tsp smoked paprika
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 4 burger buns (use gluten-free if needed)
• 1 ripe avocado, sliced
• 4 slices tomato
• 4 leaves lettuce (romaine or iceberg)
• ½ red onion, thinly sliced
• 4 tbsp mayonnaise or vegan mayo
• 2 tsp Dijon mustard

Instructions

1. Prepare Marinade

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

2. Marinate Mushrooms

Brush the marinade over both sides of the portobello caps. Let them marinate for 10-15 minutes while you prepare the toppings and preheat your grill (or grill pan) to medium-high heat.

3. Grill Mushrooms

Grill the mushrooms, cap side down first, for 4–5 minutes per side, until tender and slightly charred.

4. Toast Buns

Toast burger buns lightly on the grill, if desired.

5. Assemble Burgers

Spread mayonnaise and Dijon mustard on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with lettuce, grilled portobello, tomato slice, avocado slices, and red onion. Top with remaining bun half.

6. Serve

Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Marinate the mushrooms up to 15 minutes to maximize flavor absorption without softening them too much. For an even smokier taste, add a small amount of smoked paprika or chipotle powder. Toasting the buns adds a nice texture contrast and prevents sogginess from the toppings.

Varianten und Anpassungen

For extra flavor, add a slice of cheese (regular or plant-based) during the last minute of grilling. Swap mayonnaise for hummus or add pickled jalapeños to give the burger a spicy kick. Use gluten-free buns if needed to keep this recipe gluten-free.

Serviervorschläge

Serve these burgers with sweet potato fries or a fresh green salad for a complete meal. They also pair well with grilled corn on the cob or coleslaw for classic cookout sides.
