My mom used to make a mushroom appetizer with these exact ingredients, except she used crimini mushrooms and chopped them fine. She served them with tortilla chips or little toasts. Here, they're the "beefier" portabellas and sliced for a rich taco filling.

How To Make portabello tacos with tomatillo avocado salsa

Step 1

Make the salsa: Add the onion, tomatillos, 1 Serrano chile, garlic and cilantro to a blender jar and process until smooth. Taste and add the additional chile, to your taste. Season with salt. Add the avocado and process until incorporated but still chunky.

Step 2

Remove stems from the mushrooms and cut each one in half. Slice the mushrooms.
Step 3

Add the olive oil to a medium skillet and heat over moderate flame. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant and just beginning to brown. Add the mushrooms and cook until softened. Season with salt. Remove from heat and toss with fresh parsley.
Step 4

Fill each tortilla with the cooked mushrooms, top with the green salsa, and serve immediately.
