Ingredients

• 4 large caps Portabella mushrooms

• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup, grated (optional) Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish) Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

Step 2

Clean the portabella mushroom caps with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Gently scrape out the gills with a spoon if desired.

Step 3

Brush both sides of the mushrooms generously with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 6

Stir in the canned crushed tomatoes and the dry white wine. Stir well to combine and reduce the heat to low.

Step 7

Add the chopped basil, honey, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.

Step 8

While the sauce is cooking, place the mushrooms on the preheated grill, gill side down. Grill for 5-6 minutes per side, or until tender and slightly charred.

Step 9

Transfer the grilled mushrooms to a serving platter, gill side up.

Step 10

Spoon the warm Fra Diavolo sauce over each mushroom cap.

Step 11

If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the mushrooms.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy!
