Grilled Portobello Mushrooms with Pesto

Create flavourful Grilled Portobello Mushrooms with Pesto in the Mico Microwave Round Grill, combining juicy mushrooms and vibrant pesto for a quick and delicious dish.

Serves: 2

Ingredients: 

  • 4 large portobello mushrooms

  • 2 tsp pesto

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method: 

Step 1: Preheat the Mico Grill: Place the empty grill in the microwave and preheat for 1 minute at full power.

Step 2: While preheating, clean the portobellos, remove the stems and gills (to reduce the amount of liquid released). Brush with olive oil, salt and pepper.

Step 3: Remove the preheated grill from the microwave using oven mitts and place the portobellos face up on the grill.

Step 4: Cook for 3½ minutes, remove from the microwave, pour away any excess liquid, turn the mushrooms over and return to the microwave for a further 3½ minutes. Depending on the size and thickness of the mushrooms and cooking preference, cooking time may need adjusting. 

Step 5: Remove from the grill, add a teaspoon of pesto on top of each portobello.
