1
Begin by adding the lemongrass, fish sauce, chili garlic sauce, Kaffir lime leaves, chili, and orange zest and juice to a food processor.
-
2
Pulse until you have a rather smooth marinade.
-
3
Scrape down the sides and repeat the pulsing until you have achieved that.
-
4
Remove the blade, and stir in the canola oil.
-
5
Add the cleaned portabella mushrooms into a large casserole pan, and pour the marinade over them, making sure you get both the top and bottom of each mushroom.
-
6
Cover with plastic wrap and let them marinate for one hour.
-
7
In a small bowl mix the garlic chili sauce with the mayonnaise, stirring to incorporate everything.
-
8
Place it in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it.
-
9
Get your grill going on medium heat.
-
10
I prefer to use charcoal as it gets some of that smokiness into the mushrooms adding another dimension in flavor.
-
11
Add the mushrooms to the grill, cover the grill and cook for about 5 minutes.
-
12
Open the lid, turn the mushrooms over, and cook another 5 minutes.
-
13
After they are nice and tender, add a slice of provolone to each mushroom.
-
14
Cover, and cook another minute or two, just until the cheese begins to melt.
-
15
Remove mushrooms from the grill and get ready to build the sandwich.
-
16
Take the bottom halves of the sliced bread, and spread the mayonnaise mixture all over each.
-
17
Top each with two of the Thai portabella mushrooms, add a generous amount of the crumbled Spicy Thai Kettle Brand chips, and top with a generous amount of the lettuce and cilantro.
-
18
Top with the remaining slice of bread and open wide.
-
19
Both my wife and I were blown away by these sandwiches.
-
20
Youve got the freshness from the lettuce and cilantro right away and then the crunchy texture, which I think is needed.
-
21
Then you bite through the smoky Asian marinated mushroom, which have a great meaty flavor I love.
-
22
Oh, and then the spicy mayonnaise that balanced everything out.
-
23
Im glad I came up with this idea as I know I will be making more of them.
-
24
My wife and I loved them so much.

Hope you enjoy.
