Directions

Step 1

Clean the portobello mushroom caps with a damp paper towel and remove the stems.

Step 2

In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, orange juice, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, black pepper, and salt.

Step 3

Place the mushrooms in a shallow dish, pour the marinade over them, and let them marinate for at least 20 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even coating.

Step 4

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Grill the marinated mushrooms for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are soft and have nice grill marks.

Step 6

Remove the mushrooms from the heat and let them cool slightly, then slice them into strips.

Step 7

Warm the flour tortillas in a pan or microwave until soft and pliable.

Step 8

Place a warm tortilla on a flat surface, and layer with cooked rice, black beans, grilled mushroom slices, diced red onion, cilantro, chopped tomatoes, cheddar cheese, sour cream, jalapeños, and sliced avocado.

Step 9

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly to form a burrito.

Step 10

Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas.

Step 11

Serve immediately, optionally with salsa or additional toppings as desired.
