Ingredients

For the Basil Aioli:

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2/3 cup fresh basil leaves chopped
  • 2 teaspoons garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest chopped

For the Marinade:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons vegan Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

For the Sandwiches:

  • 2 large portobello mushroom caps destemmed and thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper deseeded and sliced
  • 1/4 cup shallot thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 sub rolls
  • 2 slices provolone cheese

Instructions

  • Add mayonnaise and chopped basil to a food processor. Blend for about 30 seconds, until smooth and green. Add minced garlic, lemon juice, and zest, and pulse again until combined. Set aside.
  • Whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Place sliced mushrooms, bell pepper, and shallots in a large bowl. Pour the marinade over and toss to coat. Let it sit while you prepare the skillet.
  • Set a large skillet over medium-high heat and add butter. Once melted, add the marinated vegetables (discard leftover marinade). Cook for 7–9 minutes, stirring often, until everything is tender and browned.
  • Divide the mushroom mixture into two portions in the skillet. Top each with a slice of provolone. Cook for 1–2 more minutes, until the cheese is melted. Remove from heat.
  • Set the rolls under a low broiler to lightly toast. Once ready, spread both sides with basil aioli. Add the cheesy mushroom mixture, sprinkle with parsley, and serve warm.
