Clean the portabella mushroom caps by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel and removing the stems. Scrape out the gills with a spoon if you prefer a smoother texture.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the mushrooms in a shallow dish or resealable bag and pour the marinade over them. Let the mushrooms marinate for at least 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Remove the mushrooms from the marinade and grill them for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
Lightly toast the burger buns on the grill for about 1 minute, if desired.
Assemble the burgers by spreading a generous layer of hummus on the bottom bun. Top with grilled portabella mushrooms, arugula, sun-dried tomatoes, red onion slices, and feta cheese (if using). Add the top bun to finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Mediterranean Portabella Burger!
