Make
- If cooking portobellos in the oven: Turn on the oven’s broiler. Brush a sheet pan with first part of cooking oil. Add portobello mushrooms on sheet pan and broil until tender and golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes, flipping once midway. While you have the broiler on, you can also brush the buns with the second part of cooking oil and broil until toasted, ~1 minute on each side.
- If cooking portobellos on the grill: Heat a grill to 500F (260C). Brush grill with first part of cooking oil and place mushrooms over direct heat. Grill until tender and golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes, flipping once midway. (Move the mushrooms to indirect heat if they start to burn.) While you have the grill on, you can also brush the buns with the second part of cooking oil and broil until toasted, ~1 minute on each side.
- Assemble burgers by spreading both halves of buns with Sriracha mayonnaise. Add mushrooms and lettuce leaves.
- Serve burgers with cucumber salad on the side and enjoy!

We loved this a lot! My boyfriend said it's his favorite of the several CS burger recipes we've tried so far. Great flavors!
0 HelpfulReally quick, easy, and tasty! Simple to make kid friendly because the spice is in the mayo.
0 HelpfulMade this tonight (no buns). The burgers, sauce, and cucumber salad were all fabulous! I did double the oil and vinegar for the cucumbers...and them drizzled some of the mayo sauce over it as well.
0 HelpfulHusband made this. The burgers were good; we used 'mini buns'. However, the cucumber salad was pretty basic, nothing special.
