Ingredients

• 4 pieces Portobello mushroom caps
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary (finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (finely chopped)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 pieces Slider buns
• 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Sriracha
• 1 cup Spinach or arugula
• 1 piece Tomato (sliced)
• 0.25 piece Red onion (thinly sliced)

Directions

Step 1

1. Clean the Portobello mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp cloth and removing the stems. Set aside.

Step 2

2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, thyme, garlic, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 3

3. Brush the marinade generously onto the Portobello mushroom caps, ensuring they are well coated. Place the mushrooms in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 4

4. While the mushrooms marinate, prepare the spicy aioli. In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise and Sriracha until well combined. Adjust the Sriracha to your preferred heat level. Set aside.

Step 5

5. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated mushrooms gill-side down on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until tender and slightly charred.

Step 6

6. Lightly toast the slider buns on the grill or in a toaster, if desired.

Step 7

7. Assemble the sliders: Spread a generous layer of spicy aioli on the bottom half of each slider bun. Top with spinach or arugula, a cooked Portobello mushroom cap, a slice of tomato, and a few thin slices of red onion. Place the top half of the bun on each slider.

Step 8

8. Serve immediately and enjoy your Sarasota's Herb Portobello Sliders with a Kick!
