Greek Salad with Portobellos
and chickpeas / creamy yogurt dressing

Active: 30 Total: 30

An herb and garlic marinade gives the portobello mushrooms for this salad great flavor whether you're cooking them on the grill or indoors.
Smarts: This salad contains raw onions. If you prefer your onions to have less bite, you can soak them in some vinegar for 10 minutes and then drain and rinse before using. Alternatively, just omit them.

Make

  1. Remove mushrooms from marinade (discard marinade) and season with some salt and pepper.

  2. If cooking on a grill: Heat grill to 400F / 204C degrees.

  3. {grill}: When grill is hot, brush grates with some oil. Transfer mushrooms to grill over direct heat. Sear on both sides until tender.

  4. {grill}: Remove mushrooms from grill and slice into strips.

  5. If cooking on the stovetop: Slice portobellos into strips. Place a nonstick pan over medium heat. Brush with some cooking oil. Saute mushrooms until tender, 4 to 5 minutes.

  6. Drizzle olive oil (portion for salad) over kale. Add a pinch of salt. Use your hands to rub the olive oil into the kale leaves for about a minute. (This is called “massaging” the kale and will make it more tender.)
