PORTOBELLO PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Scrape out the gills of the portobellos with a spoon, then halve the mushrooms horizontally to make 6 thin rounds.
• Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the red pepper flakes and garlic; cook 1 minute. Reduce the heat to low, add the tomatoes and basil and cook until the garlic is soft, about 15 more minutes. Transfer to a food processor and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Combine the panko, 1/2 cup parmesan, 1 tablespoon parsley, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a shallow bowl. Whisk the eggs and 2 tablespoons cold water in another bowl. Put the flour in a third bowl.
• Dredge the mushrooms in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip in the eggs and then in the panko mixture, pressing to coat both sides. Heat 1/2 inch peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, fry the mushrooms until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
• Spread a layer of the tomato sauce in the prepared baking dish. Add the fried mushrooms, then cover with the remaining tomato sauce. Top with the mozzarella and the remaining 1/2 cup parmesan. Bake until browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley.

DELI STYLE PORTOBELLO SANDWICHES

Steps:

• To make the marinade, mix the first 5 ingredients together in a saucepan and bring to a boil - then remove from heat and add the mushrooms. Cover and let mushrooms marinate in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours - stirring every 12 hours.
• To prepare the mushrooms, drain the mushrooms after marinating and reserve the liquid. Place the mushrooms on an oiled sheet pan and roast until the edges are crispy and they have lost most of their moisture. While the mushrooms are roasting, make the sauce. Pour the marinade through a wire mesh strainer into a sauce pan and reduce the sauce by 2/3 or until it coats the back of a spoon. Let the sauce cool and toss the roasted mushrooms in the sauce.
• To make the sandwiches, turn the broiler on hi. Toast the bread in a toaster and arrange the slices on a sheet pan. Spread mustard on all slices then spoon mushrooms on two slices and cover with the cheese. Spoon the sauerkraut on the other two slices and place the sheet pan under the broiler until the cheese is melting and starting to brown. Remove the sheet pan from the oven and carefully flip the slices with the kraut over on to the mushroom slices. Cut the sandwiches diagonally and serve with a pickel and your favorite chips.
