Meridian Cafe Portobello Mushroom Sandwich

No Photo

Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Sandwich

  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large portobello mushrooms (about 1 1/4 pounds)
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons lemon pepper seasoning
  • 12 slices crusty whole wheat bread

Sauce

  • 2/3 cup Ranch dressing
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1/4 cup milk

Toppings

  • 12 thin tomato slices
  • 6 thin slices Swiss cheese
  • Red leaf lettuce, as desired

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a heavy, large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, onions and Cajun and lemon pepper seasonings. Cook until tender, about 10 minutes. (The mushrooms will look wet.)
  2. Toast bread and top 6 slices with a few tablespoons of the mushroom mixture.
  3. Stir Ranch dressing, tahini and milk together in a small bowl until well blended to make a sauce.
  4. Pile each mushroom-covered slice with about 1 tablespoon of the sauce, two tomato slices, a piece of Swiss cheese and red leaf lettuce. Top each pile with another slice of toast.

Notes

Preparing ahead: You may sauté the mushrooms and mix the sauce ahead, then keep both in the refrigerator to make sandwiches as needed.
