Grilled Chimichurri Portobellos with Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes

First off, we’re making some seriously delicious grilled chimichurri portobellos. They’re marinated in a zesty chimichurri sauce before hitting the grill, and then served on a bed of creamy goat cheese mashed potatoes. Trust me, it’s as good as it sounds.

Ingredients:

For the chimichurri and mushrooms, you’ll need:

• 1/2 cup of olive oil
• 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar
• 1/2 cup of finely chopped cilantro (or parsley if you want to keep it traditional)
• 1 small red serrano pepper, minced
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon of oregano
• 1 teaspoon of kosher salt
• Red pepper flakes to taste
• 4 portobello mushroom caps

For the mashed potatoes, you’ll need:

• 2 large russet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons of butter
• 4 ounces of goat cheese
• 1/2 to 1 cup of chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 clove of garlic, grated
• 1 teaspoon of salt

Instructions:

1. Chimichurri Sauce: Mix together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, chopped cilantro (or parsley), minced serrano pepper, minced garlic, oregano, kosher salt, and red pepper flakes in a small dish.

2. Mashed Potatoes: Cut the potatoes into quarters and boil them for about 10-15 minutes until they’re really soft. Drain the water and peel off the skins. Mash the potatoes and mix in the broth, butter, goat cheese, grated garlic, and salt.

3. Marinade: While the potatoes are cooking, brush the mushrooms with a bit of the chimichurri sauce on both sides. Let them marinate for about 15-30 minutes.

4. Grilling the Mushrooms: Heat up a grill pan or grill over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and grill them on both sides, brushing them with more chimichurri sauce, until they’re soft, tasty, and nicely browned with grill marks.

5. Serving: Place a grilled mushroom on a dollop of the creamy mashed potatoes and spoon some of the remaining chimichurri sauce over the top. Add a bit of salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, and you’re all set!

Enjoy your meal!
