Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

  1. 1

    Clean the Mushrooms

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and prepare a baking sheet with foil or use a nonstick baking sheet. Rinse, pat dry, and stem mushrooms. Use a spoon to carefully scoop mushroom gills out, moving in a circular path around mushrooms. (The gills will come out very easily, so no need to apply too much pressure.)

  2. 2

    Roast the Mushrooms

    Place the Portobello mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet. Rub down both sides of mushrooms with a generous amount of pesto. Season the mushrooms with a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast and watch for 12-15 minutes. Mushrooms are done when they are tender, browned, and releasing some juice.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Ingredients

    While the mushrooms are roasting, prepare the vegetables and salad. Thoroughly rinse produce and pat dry. Slice tomato into 1/4" slices. Peel onion and slice half of onion into 1/4" slices for topping the burger. Chop other half of onion into a small dice. Slice cucumber in half horizontally and then slice into small half rounds. Rinse and drain the garbanzo beans.

  4. 4

    Make the Dressing

    In a large bowl, whisk together red wine vinegar, 2 Tbsp. olive oil, and sugar. Add salt and pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Make the Salad

    Add the cucumber, chopped red onion, and garbanzo beans to the dressing bowl. Let marinate for 10 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Plate the Dish

    If desired, toast the Kaiser buns. Arrange bun on the plate and place a roasted mushroom on top. Dress burger with sliced red onion, tomato, and baby arugula. Add a scoop of salad on the side. Garnish with a crack of fresh black pepper.
