Mushroom Melt Ingredients

Method

Mushroom Melt Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Scallion Gremolata

    In a small bowl, combine the finely chopped scallions, lemon zest, and chopped parsley. Mix well and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Mushrooms

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are golden brown and tender.

  3. 3

    Add Garlic

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant. Remove the skillet from heat.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Sandwiches

    Preheat a separate skillet or griddle over medium heat. Take two slices of bread and layer them with sautéed mushrooms and a generous slice of provolone cheese. Top with another slice of bread to create a sandwich.

  5. 5

    Grill the Sandwiches

    Place the sandwiches on the preheated skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted. Remove from heat.

  6. 6

    Serve with Pomodoro Sauce

    Serve each mushroom melt with a side of warm pomodoro sauce for dipping. Top with scallion gremolata before serving.
