Elevate your grilling game with this Grilled Sage Portabella recipe—a perfect blend of earthy flavors and aromatic herbs. Juicy portabella mushrooms are marinated in a tantalizing mixture of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and garlic, then paired with the subtle, woodsy aroma of fresh sage leaves tucked under each cap. Grilled to tender perfection with just the right hint of char, these mushrooms are a versatile delight—serve them as a stunning main dish, a flavorful plant-based burger, or atop fresh greens for a light yet satisfying meal. Ready in just 25 minutes with minimal prep, this recipe is your go-to for an easy, gourmet addition to your summer grilling repertoire.
Clean the portabella mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and use a spoon to scrape out the gills, if desired, for a milder flavor.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Brush the marinade generously onto both sides of the mushrooms and tuck one sage leaf under each mushroom cap for added aroma and flavor.
Let the mushrooms marinate for about 10 minutes while preheating your grill to medium-high heat.
Place the mushrooms on the grill, gill side down, and cook for 4-5 minutes. Flip them gently and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until tender and slightly charred.
Transfer the grilled portabella mushrooms to a serving plate. Garnish with additional fresh sage leaves for presentation, if desired.
Serve hot as a main dish, on a bed of greens, or as a hearty burger substitute in a sandwich.
