Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces portabella mushrooms (large, cleaned and stems removed)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). If using an oven, prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Clean the portabella mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and scrape out the gills with a spoon if desired.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the marinade generously over both sides of the portabella mushrooms, ensuring they are well coated.
Let the mushrooms marinate for 5–10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
If grilling, place the mushrooms on the heated grill, gill-side down, and cook for 4–5 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 4–5 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
If baking in the oven, arrange the mushrooms gill-side up on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until they are tender and juicy.
Remove the mushrooms from the heat and allow them to cool slightly. Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top for a fresh finish.
Serve warm as a side dish, a topping for salads, or a main course paired with rice or pasta.
