- How to cook Chicken of the Woods
- Clean the mushrooms thoroughly of all dirt and debris. Then cut the mushrooms into 3-4" wide flat pieces that are able to be stacked on a sandwich.
- In a small bowl mix together the olive oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, cloves of garlic, salt and pepper.
- Pour the marinade into a sealable gallon bag with the mushroom pieces. Let marinate for four hours.
- After marinating add mushrooms and some of the marinade into a large skillet set over medium heat and saute until mushrooms are tender and beginning to brown.
Assembling the Sandwich
- Place arugula on the bottom of a toasted ciabatta bun and pile mushroom slices on top along with a ladle of warmed pasta sauce. Serve immediately.*
Notes
There are other condiments that would be equally great. My Peppered Balsamic Mayo would be incredible on this chicken of the woods sandwich too.
*Provolone, mozzarella, or Parmesan cheese could be added if desired.
