Preparation

Step 1

In a shallow dish, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, garlic, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Add bell pepper and mushrooms; toss to coat. Marinate at room temperature 30 minutes (or refrigerate, tightly covered, up to overnight).
Heat grill to medium; lightly oil grates. Grill bell pepper (uncovered), skin side down, until blackened, about 10 minutes, remove from grill. When cool enough to handle, rub off skins. Grill mushrooms, covered, until lightly charred and tender, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Layer each bun with bell pepper, 2 mushrooms, goat cheese, and lettuce. Serve immediately.
