These succulent sandwiches made with Crispy Oyster Mushrooms & Aji Verde are a spin on a traditional Peruvian roasted chicken recipe. The chicken is replaced with oyster mushrooms marinated in herbs and spices, and seared until crisp. The mushrooms are then layered on a crusty ciabatta roll, with sliced avocado, red onion, micro greens and the most delectable green sauce.
Ingredients
Mushrooms
- 6 oz oyster mushrooms
- 3 tbsp olive oil divided
- 2 tsp white vinegar
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 2 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp oregano
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Mushrooms
- Remove any tough mushroom stems and save them for making veggie broth.
- Place 2 tablespoons olive oil, vinegar, salt, cumin, paprika, oregano, and garlic in a medium bowl. Add the oyster mushrooms and toss to coat.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over high heat. Place the mushrooms in the pan and place a cast iron skillet, or other heat-proof weight, on top.
- Sear the mushrooms until deep golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per side.
Sandwich
- Slice the rolls in half. Layer with the greens, sliced avocado, red onion and the oyster mushrooms. Drizzle with the Peruvian green sauce.
