- 4 large portobello mushroom caps
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 ½ teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
- 4 hot dog buns
- Toppings of choice
Remove the stems from the portobellos and scrape out the gills with a spoon. Clean them by wiping with a damp cloth, then slice each into 3 to 4 strips, each about 1-inch thick.
In a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, maple syrup, cider vinegar, liquid smoke, paprika, onion powder, and garlic. Lightly brush some of the mixture over each of the portobello strips.
Oil the bottom of a nonstick grill pan and place it over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add the mushroom strips in a single layer (work in batches if needed). Cook the strips for about 4 minutes on each side, brushing them with the soy sauce mixture as they cook, until tender and browned.
Divide the strips into buns, placing 2 to 3 into each bun. Top with toppings of choice and serve.
- A nonstick skillet can be used if you don't have a grill pan.
- The mushrooms can be cooked on an outdoor grill. Lightly oil the grill and preheat it to medium. Cook the mushroom strips for about 3 to 5 minutes, until lightly charred.
