Grilled Portobello Sandwich With Roasted Red Pepper Aioli Food

GRILLED PORTOBELLO SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat. Brush mushroom and pepper with reserved artichoke marinade. Grill 5 min. on each side, brushing with any remaining marinade for the last few minutes. Meanwhile, grill 1 to 2 min. on each side or until lightly toast on both sides. Slide mushroom and pepper. Spread 1 toast slice with dressing; spread remaining toast slice with pesto. Fill toast slices with grilled vegetables, cheese and artichokes to make sandwich. Substitute: Substitute KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing for the reserved artichoke marinade. Make Ahead: Vegetables can be grilled ahead of time; cool, then refrigerate up to 24 hours. Reheat in microwave before using as directed.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM SANDWICHES WITH BASIL AIOLI

Steps:

• Make the basil aioli: Combine the mayonnaise, garlic, basil, and lemon juice in a small bowl and whisk to mix. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• For the sandwiches: Cut the stems off the portobello mushrooms flush with the mushroom caps. Using the tip of a paring knife, make tiny holes in the caps and insert the garlic slivers and rosemary leaves (if using).
• Combine the olive oil and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl and whisk to mix. Generously brush the portobello caps and tomato slices with some of the oil and vinegar mixture and season them with salt and pepper.
• Set up the grill for direct grilling and preheat to high.
• When ready to cook, place a vegetable grate on the hot grill and preheat the vegetable grate for 5 minutes.
• Arrange the portobello caps, rounded side down, and the tomato slices on the hot grate and grill, turning with a spatula, until nicely browned and soft, 3 to 6 minutes per side. Brush the vegetables once or twice as they cook with the oil and vinegar mixture.
• Spread the insides of the rolls or buns with basil aioli. Add the grilled mushrooms, the tomato slices, and the arugula, and enjoy.
