Gigante Bean And Portobello Sate - Cool Beans
  1. To make the marinade: Combine the scallions, ginger, lemon juice, lemon zest, oil, garlic, tamari, brown sugar, and ¼ cup water in a food processor or blender and puree until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

  2. Toss the mushrooms with half the marinade in a small glass bowl and toss the beans with the remaining half of the marinade in another small glass bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

  3. Soak 12 wooden skewers in hot water for 10 to 15 minutes, then drain.

  4. Drain the mushrooms and beans and reserve the marinade.

  5. To make the sauce: Heat the reserved marinade in a small saucepan over medium heat until lightly bubbling, then stir in the cayenne pepper and whisk in the peanut butter and ½ cup water. Cook until hot and thick but still pourable, adding a little more water if needed. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.

  6. Thread three slices of mushrooms lengthwise onto a skewer and repeat with the remaining mushrooms. Thread the gigante beans on separate skewers.

  7. Heat a griddle, grill pan, or large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Brush with a little oil. Cook as many mushroom skewers as will fit until softened and browned, about 4 minutes per side (pressing with a spatula if needed to help the mushrooms stay in contact with the pan). Repeat with the remaining mushroom skewers. Cook the bean skewers until heated through and lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side.

  8. Transfer to a platter as you work and lightly tent the skewers with foil to keep them warm.

  9. To serve: Pass the skewers and set out bowls of the sauce and coconut and let your guests dip and sprinkle as they see fit.
