This is a vegan and Mediterranean diet friendly meal idea.
You can easily eat these steaks like any other kind of steak but, as a more diet friendly way.

Did you try my Grilled Portobello Caprese Burgers?

That grilled ‘burger’ recipe is another great alternative to eating meat.
This recipe is not grilled however, but, could certainly be dressed up in a caprese way like the burgers.

This recipe is especially for anyone asking how do you eat a Portobello mushroom.

I think this may have something to do with the size of the Portobello mushroom in relation to other mushrooms.
However, I must say that I see the size of the Portobello mushroom as an advantage because you can eat it in so many ways.

The Portobello mushrooms in this recipe are really a substitute for meat.

So, rather than cutting these mushrooms up to throw in a salad or put on top of a pizza, we will make these and eat them like we would a steak. Feel free to cut your mushroom up to serve it the way that you want to if you desire to.

This recipe is also a good choice for anyone asking what is a good substitute for steak.

Portobello mushrooms really do make for a good alternative to steak.
They are also pretty filling but, not in a heavy way.

The trick to making a Portobello mushroom a steak alternative is simple.

I already mentioned that preparing these delicious mushroom steaks like regular steaks is one way to make them a great alternative. Serving these mushroom steaks like you would serve a regular steak is another way.

Tips for making Portobello steaks.

I just mentioned that preparing Portobello mushrooms as if they are a steak is one way to make them more satisfying.
Also, serving the Portobello steaks as if they are actual steaks in another way to make them better.

Here are some more great tips for you.

  1. On misconception about Portobello mushrooms is that they are flavorless. If you are someone who agrees with this, feel free to season the mushroom steaks to make them more to your likings.
  2. Portobello mushrooms can dry out when baked or grilled. Make sure that you use a pastry brush or similar item to generously brush the marinade on the tops and bottoms of the mushrooms.
  3. Leaving the gills, what is on the underside of the mushroom cap, on is optional in this recipe. If you decide to remove them, simply use a spoon to scoop them out.

Portobello Steaks in Garlic Sauce served with mashed potatoes and asparagus.

People always ask how do you prepare Portobello mushrooms.

Yes, mushrooms to grow from the ground.
While this may make them a healthy food to eat, it can also mean that there could be dirt on mushrooms.

Here is one way to clean mushrooms for a recipe like this one.

I use a damp, not soaked, clean paper towel to wipe off the dirt.
Then I allow the mushroom to fully dry out.

People do ask should you wash mushrooms you’re going to cook.

Mushrooms are very porous and as a result, can hold on to water if they are exposed to a lot of it.
This is why I suggest using a damp clean paper towel instead to wipe the dirt off and then allowing them to dry fully.

I mentioned that you can clean your mushrooms by using a clean damp paper towel to wipe the dirt off of them before using them in this recipe. Then allow the mushrooms to dry fully before adding them to this recipe.

Removing the gills from the underside of the caps is optional.

Simply use a spoon to scoop the gills out if desired. Then remove the stems as we are trying to make these steaks seem more like real steaks.

Ingredients needed to make Portobello Steaks.

  • Portobello Mushrooms- 4. Clean the dirt off of the mushrooms and then allow them to dry. Also, remove the stems.
  • Balsamic Vinegar– ⅓ cup
  • Olive Oil– ¼ cup.
  • Cumin– ½ teaspoon.
  • Paprika– ½ teaspoon.
  • Garlic- 3 cloves chopped or minced.
  • Seasonings as desired– up to one tablespoon. Feel free to mix seasonings too. This can include Italian Seasonings, Mediterranean Diet Seasoning Blend, Greek Seasoning Blend, a Vegan Steak Seasoning, Salt, and/or Pepper.

How to make Portobello Steaks in Garlic Sauce

  • Preheat the oven to 400. Prepare the mushrooms by cleaning off the dirt and removing the stems. Removing the gills from the underside of the caps is optional. Then place the mushrooms upside down in a large baking dish,
  • To make the sauce, simply whisk together the remaining ingredients. Add seasoning as needed.
  • Use a brush, such as a pastry brush or marinade brush. Brush the sauce all over the mushrooms including the tops and bottoms. Then place the mushrooms back into the baking dish with the undersides up (upside down).
  • I should also mention that you can add vegetable to the baking dish to bake with the Portobello steaks. I like asparagus which I would add half way through as they take a shorter time to bake and I am not a fan of mushy asparagus.
  • Bake the Portobello mushroom steaks for 20 minutes. Flip the mushrooms over and if there is any remaining sauce you can pour or brush it on top.
  • Bake for another five to ten minutes or until the mushrooms brown.

About Me
