¾ cup grated Parmesan 6 portabella caps, stems removed and saved for a separate use or discarded 1. Fit the Griddler® Deluxe with the grill plates and preheat both plates to 450˚F. 2. While the unit is preheating, chop the garlic in a Cuisinart® Food Processor or Chopper. Add the panko, herbs, zest, salt and pepper, and process until combined. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add 2 tablespoons of oil and the Parmesan. Reserve. 3. Brush the tops and bottoms of the mushrooms with the remaining 2 tablespoons of the oil. Place on the lower preheated grill plate and using the cover height adjuster, gently close so that the upper plate is just touching the tops of the mushrooms. Grill 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until grill marks are visible. 4. Keeping the top plate at 450˚F, reduce the bottom plate to Warm. Open the grill and evenly divide the mushroom mixture among the tops of the grilled portabellas. Setting the cover height adjuster at the highest notch, close the upper plate until it is sitting just above the mushrooms. Let the mushrooms brown until the breadcrumb mixture is toasted, about 3 to 5 minutes. 5. Serve immediately.

The Cuisinart® Griddler® Deluxe does it all! Griddler® Deluxe Position: Closed Plate Side: Grill Makes 6 servings 2 pounds ground beef round or chuck (freshly ground if possible) 1½ teaspoons kosher salt ¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper ½ teaspoon garlic powder 3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese, divided 6 hamburger buns, for serving 1. Fit the Griddler® Deluxe with the grill plates and preheat both plates to 450˚F. 2. Working the ground chuck as little as possible, mix in a large bowl with the salt, pepper and garlic powder. Shape into 6 patties, about 4 inches in diameter. The best way to do this is to use a 4-inch round cookie cutter: Divide meat equally into six portions, put each into into the cookie cutter and gently press to evenly fill. All burgers should be the same thickness for optimal results. Use your thumb to press a dimple into the center of each patty. 3. When the unit has preheated, place the burgers on the lower grill plate, evenly spaced. Using the cover height adjuster, close the upper plate so the hinge is set to the position where the upper grill plate is just sitting on the burgers without pressing them. 4. Contact grill for 5 minutes for rare burgers (this will result in a medium-rare burger by the end of cooking). Then open the unit and top with the blue cheese, ½ tablespoon per burger. Setting the cover height adjuster, close the upper grill plate so it is sitting over the blue cheese but not touching it. Grill for an additional 2 minutes, or until the cheese is just melted. 13 Continues to next page
