Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • juice from 1 large lemon
  • 2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 large portobello mushroom caps, cleaned and gills removed
  • 2 large plum or vine-ripened heirloom tomatoes, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick slices
  • 2 sprigs fresh basil, chopped
  • 1/2 pound fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
Directions
  1. Combine the marinade ingredients and pour over the mushrooms. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours.
  2. Remove the mushrooms from marinade and reserve the marinade for later use.
  3. Season the tomato slices with salt and pepper.
  4. Heat a grill to medium-high heat and grill the mushrooms until cooked through and tender, about 10-15 minutes. When mushrooms are tender and still warm, layer with mozzarella, tomato slices, and chopped basil. In a small saucepan, heat the marinade until warm. Serve the stack on a plate or in a bowl and drizzle with the warm marinade.
