Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Clean the cremini mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp cloth or paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the ends of the stems and cut any large mushrooms in half to ensure even roasting.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.
Add the prepared mushrooms to the bowl and toss them gently in the marinade, ensuring each mushroom is coated with the mixture.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the marinated mushrooms in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure they have some space between them for even cooking.
Roast the mushrooms in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown, stirring halfway through the roasting time.
Remove the mushrooms from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the roasted mushrooms with chopped parsley and drizzle with lemon juice for a fresh, zesty finish before serving.
Serve immediately as a delicious side dish or a topping for salads, grains, or pasta.
