Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Remove any brown spots from potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch wedges.
- In a small microwavable bowl (or a small pan over low heat), melt garlic spread.
- To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add potatoes. (NOTE: For 4 servings, use 2 baking sheets.) Drizzle with half the melted garlic spread, then toss to coat.
- Roast in the middle of the oven for 25-28 min, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden. (NOTE: For 4 servings, roast in the middle and bottom of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
- Meanwhile, thinly slice mushrooms.
- Thinly slice chives.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add remaining garlic spread, then mushrooms. Cook for 5-6 min, stirring often, until softened. Season with pepper.
- Remove from heat. Transfer to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
- Arrange bacon strips in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast bacon in the top of the oven for 8-12 min, until crispy and cooked through.**
- Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
- To a small bowl, add mayo and half the chives. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
- Reheat the same pan (from step 2) over medium.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then onions. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until softened.
- Add balsamic glaze, mustard, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water and 2 tsp (4 tsp) sugar.
- Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until some liquid has evaporated and onions are jammy. (TIP: Use a fork to help break down onions!) Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, halve ciabatta rolls. On another parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange buns, cut-side up.
- Toast in the top of the oven for 3-4 min, until golden. (TIP: Keep an eye on them so they don't burn!)
- Spread balsamic onions over rolls. Top with mushrooms, bacon and cheese. Return to the top of oven and bake for 5-6 min, until cheese melts.
- Divide open-faced mushroom melts and potato wedges between plates.
- Sprinkle with crispy shallots and remaining chives.
- Serve chive mayo alongside for dipping.
If you've opted to add bacon, arrange bacon strips in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast bacon in the top of the oven for 8-12 min, until crispy and cooked through.**
