Grilled Portabella Sandwich With Gouda And Red Pepper Aioli Recipes

GRILLED PORTABELLA SANDWICHES OR PANINI

Steps:

• Mix together oil, salt and pepper, and garlic. Marinate mushrooms and onions with this for about thirty minutes.
• Grill mushrooms and onions over medium heat until done, brushing on the oil mixture liberally throughout cooking time.
• Cut the bread open length-wise, brush it with the oil, then lightly toast on the grill.
• Layer on the onions and mushrooms. Press sandwich together for a few minutes (I usually use a frying pan to weigh it down).
• Cut into 6 pieces or so and serve.

MIKE DITKA'S TAILGATE PORK SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a plastic zipper bag, marinate pork tenderloins in Chef Tom's Marinade at least 8 hours, preferably overnight (and personally, I've done up to 48 hours with great results).
• Remove pork from marinade and grill over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes, or until internal temperature is 160 degrees F.
• Toast kaiser rolls on the grill.
• Slice cooked tenderloins for sandwiches.
• Spread Orange Aioli on insides of rolls, layer pork onto the rolls, then the tomato, lettuce and onion.
• Dig in!

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.

RED PEPPER AIOLI

Steps:

• Mince garlic and cut peppers into pieces a food processor can handle.
• Process garlic, peppers, mayo, and olive oil.
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• You can either use roasted peppers in a jar or make them yourself. I make them myself. I roast in a 450 degree oven for about 30 minutes. After they have cooled, I remove the skin. Sometimes the skin comes off easily if you put them in a ziploc bag after they have cooled a little.
