Pesto-Stuffed Grilled Portobellos
Larry Short
"Pesto-stuffed grilled portobellos make for the perfect summer outdoor meal. It stands alone as vegetarian fare if you serve it with fresh fruit (such as watermelon chunks and blueberries); I love it with cedar-plank grilled salmon as well. You will think you've died and gone to heaven."

Ready In
- Remove stems from mushrooms and finely chop stems.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chopped mushroom stems, shallot, and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes. Pour wine into the skillet; cook and stir mixture using a wooden spoon until liquid is evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Cool mixture to room temperature, about 10 minutes.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Brush the olive oil mixture over the top each mushroom and place, top-side up, on a grilling pan. Mix pesto and pine nuts with the mushroom stem mixture together in a bowl; spoon into each mushroom. Sprinkle Italian cheese blend over the filling.
- Grill mushrooms on the preheated grill until edges are blackened and stuffing is bubbling, about 10 minutes.
Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- Grill mushrooms over open flame or smoldering charcoal (medium heat) from alder, cedar, or other fine smoking wood, depending on the flavor you desire.
- Any white wine can be used in place of the Chardonnay.

These are very easy to assemble with few ingredients, making for an impressive looking side dish. At first I thought there's no way there will be enough "stuffing". And there really wasn't much...

This was delicious! I usually hate mushrooms but I adored this. I had an avocado on the side and it made a good meal.
