Portobello Lasagna Rollups Food

STUFFED MUSHROOM LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Brush the mushroom caps with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, season both sides with salt and pepper and put on the prepared baking sheet with the interior sides down. Bake until shriveled and the liquid evaporates, about 30 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Leave the oven on but lower the temperature to 375 degrees F.
• Add the cremini mushrooms, garlic and shallots to a food processor and pulse until the mixture is coarsely ground. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushroom mixture and stir. Cook, stirring every couple minutes, until the mushrooms begin to caramelize, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Deglaze the pan with the Marsala and add the thyme. Set aside to cool.
• Once cool, whisk together the mushroom mixture, ricotta and Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Fill each mushroom cap evenly with the mixture.
• Spray the bottom of a 9-by-14-inch baking dish with cooking spray; spray one side of a piece of aluminum foil with the spray.
• Ladle a thin, even coating of the Lightened-Up Bechamel into the prepared baking dish. Top with 4 lasagna noodles, a third of the spinach and another layer of bechamel. Next, place 6 stuffed mushrooms evenly in 2 rows. Add a third of the sliced mozzarella followed by a layer of bechamel. Repeat with 4 more noodles, aother third of the spinach and then some bechamel. Place the remaining 6 stuffed mushrooms evenly in 2 rows and top with another third of the mozzarella and then some bechamel. Add the remaining noodles and spinach, then finally another layer of bechamel and the remaining mozzarella on top.
• Bake immediately, as the more time this sits, the more the shape and structure of the lasagna is compromised. Cover with the sprayed aluminum foil piece and bake on the middle rack until golden brown and bubbly, about 35 minutes. If you want extra golden brown cheese, place the lasagna in the broiler for a couple of minutes. Let the lasagna rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing with a sharp knife and scooping with a spatula. Garnish each slice with basil.
• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour, whisking until smooth, and cook for about 1 1/2 minutes. Slowly add the milk while whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a low simmer and add the Parmesan, nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

GRILLED CHICKEN AND PORTOBELLO LASAGNA ROLLUPS

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in the lasagna noodles, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are cooked, but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain and rinse.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spread the marinara sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 glass baking dish; set aside.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir mushrooms until they soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in spinach, and cook until hot; remove from heat.
• Stir together the chicken, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, oregano, and the cooked spinach mixture in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Spread about 1/4 cup of the mixture on each lasagna noodle. Roll the noodle up, and place seam-side down into the prepared baking dish. Repeat for each noodle. Spoon Alfredo sauce over the rollups.
• Bake, covered, in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and pine nuts. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the pine nuts are toasted, about 10 minutes. Serve hot.

PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil with 1 tablespoon salt and a splash of oil. Add the lasagna noodles and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain and set aside.
• For the white sauce, bring the milk to a simmer in a saucepan. Set aside. Melt 8 tablespoons (1 stick) of the butter in a large saucepan. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Pour the hot milk into the butter-flour mixture all at once. Add 1 tablespoon salt, the pepper, and nutmeg, and cook over medium-low heat, stirring first with the wooden spoon and then with a whisk, for 3 to 5 minutes, until thick. Set aside off the heat.
• Separate the mushroom stems from the caps and discard the stems. Slice the caps 1/4-inch thick. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan. When the butter melts, add half the mushrooms, sprinkle with salt, and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and they release some of their juices. If they become too dry, add a little more oil. Toss occasionally to make sure the mushrooms cook evenly. Repeat with the remaining mushrooms and set all the mushrooms aside.
• To assemble the lasagna, spread some of the sauce in the bottom of an 8 by 12 by 2-inch baking dish. Arrange a layer of noodles on top, then more sauce, then 1/3 of the mushrooms, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan. Repeat 2 more times, layering noodles, sauce, mushrooms, and Parmesan. Top with a final layer of noodles and sauce, and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan.
• Bake the lasagna for 45 minutes, or until the top is browned the sauce is bubbly and hot. Allow to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes and serve hot.
