How to Make Grilled Portabella Burgers

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Clean and peel 4 large portabella mushrooms; remove and discard stems.
  3. Gently brush mushrooms with a damp cloth to remove any dirt.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Add the portabella mushrooms to the marinade, turning to coat completely.
  6. Add 8 slices of fresh mozzarella cheese to the marinade to coat.
  7. Marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour (or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator).
  8. Carefully place marinated mushrooms on the preheated grill.
  9. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until tender and slightly charred. Watch carefully for flare-ups due to the olive oil.
  10. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes.
  11. Serve portabella burgers on lightly toasted Kaiser rolls with lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and the marinated mozzarella cheese.
