Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Button mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 whole peppers Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 tablespoon Adobo sauce
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the ends of the stems, if necessary.
In a food processor or blender, combine the chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, garlic cloves, lime juice, olive oil, ground cumin, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth to create the marinade.
Place the mushrooms in a medium-sized mixing bowl and pour the marinade over them. Toss well to ensure the mushrooms are evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for a deeper flavor.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated mushrooms to the skillet, including any remaining marinade from the bowl.
Cook the mushrooms for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and slightly browned. The mushrooms will release their juices and absorb the flavorful marinade as they cook.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in chopped fresh cilantro for a burst of freshness.
Serve the Chipotle Lime Marinated Mushrooms warm as a side dish, or use them as a topping for tacos, rice bowls, or salads.
