Ingredients for Air Fryer Juicy Lucy Mushroom Burgers

  • Four 4-inch portobello mushrooms, stems removed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 ounces white Cheddar, shredded (about 1 cup)
  • 3 ounces Havarti cheese, shredded (about 1 cup)
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup panko
  • Olive oil cooking spray
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 4 brioche burger buns, split
  • 4 leaves bibb or green leaf lettuce
  • 1 large tomato, sliced

Directions for Air Fryer Juicy Lucy Mushroom Burgers

  1. Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 400 degrees F.
  2. Toss together the mushrooms, oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Place the mushrooms in the air-fryer basket and fry until tender, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate to cool, 5 to 8 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, stir together the Cheddar, Havarti cheese, cream cheese, chili powder, garlic powder and onion powder in a medium bowl. Divide the mixture into 4 portions. Form each portion into a disk about 3 1/2 inches wide to fit inside the mushroom caps.
  4. Once the mushrooms are cool enough to handle, horizontally cut off the upper third of each mushroom cap. Place 1 cheese disk inside each mushroom, gill-side up, and sandwich with the top of the mushroom cap, pressing down to cover the cheese filling.
  5. Whisk the flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small baking dish. Whisk the egg in a second baking dish. Put the panko in a third baking dish.
  6. Dredge the mushrooms in the flour, shake off any excess and coat in the egg mixture. Allow the excess egg to drip off, then coat in the panko, pressing to adhere. Spray the mushrooms with the cooking spray and place in the air fryer basket. Cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side.
  7. Mix together the mayonnaise, barbecue sauce and ketchup in a small bowl. Spread a generous layer of the sauce on both sides of the buns. Add to each bottom bun 1 lettuce leaf, 1 tomato slice and 1 mushroom burger. Finish with the bun tops, slice in half and serve.

  • Vegetarian – Vegetarianism is the practice of abstaining from the consumption of meat (red meat, poultry, seafood, and the flesh of any other animal), and it may also include abstention from by-products of animal slaughter.Vegetarianism may be adopted for various reasons. Many people object to eating meat out of respect for sentient life. Such ethical motivations have been codified under various religious beliefs, as well as animal rights advocacy. Other motivations for vegetarianism are health-related, political, environmental, cultural, aesthetic, economic, or personal preference. There are variations of the diet as well: an ovo-lacto vegetarian diet includes both eggs and dairy products, an ovo-vegetarian diet includes eggs but not dairy products, and a lacto-vegetarian diet includes dairy products but not eggs. A vegan diet excludes all animal products, including eggs and dairy. Avoidance of animal products may require dietary supplements to prevent deficiencies such as vitamin B12 deficiency, which leads to pernicious anemia. Psychologically, preference for vegetarian foods can be affected by one’s own socio-economic status and evolutionary factors.Packaged and processed foods, such as cakes, cookies, candies, chocolate, yogurt, and marshmallows, often contain unfamiliar animal ingredients, and so may be a special concern for vegetarians due to the likelihood of such additives. Feelings among vegetarians vary concerning these ingredients. Some vegetarians scrutinize product labels for animal-derived ingredients, such as cheese made with rennet, while other vegetarians do not object to consuming them or are unaware of their presence.Semi-vegetarian diets consist largely of vegetarian foods but may include fish or poultry, or sometimes other meats, on an infrequent basis. Those with diets containing fish or poultry may define meat only as mammalian flesh and may identify with vegetarianism. A pescetarian diet has been described as “fish but no other meat”.
  • Cheeseburger – A cheeseburger is a hamburger topped with cheese. Traditionally, the slice of cheese is placed on top of the meat patty. The cheese is usually added to the cooking hamburger patty shortly before serving, which allows the cheese to melt. Cheeseburgers can include variations in structure, ingredients and composition. As with other hamburgers, a cheeseburger may include toppings such as lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, bacon, mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard.In fast food restaurants, the cheese used in cheeseburgers is usually processed cheese. Other meltable cheeses may be used as alternatives. Common examples include cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, blue cheese, and pepper jack.
