Clean the Portobello mushrooms by gently wiping with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Remove the stems and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and minced garlic to create the marinade.
Brush the marinade generously over the tops and undersides of the mushrooms. Allow them to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in another small bowl, combine the chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix well.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Once the mushrooms have marinated, sprinkle the chickpea flour mixture evenly over the gill side of each mushroom cap to enhance the protein content.
Place the mushrooms, gill side up, on the grill. Cook for about 5 minutes, then flip and grill for another 5 minutes, or until tender and grill marks appear.
Remove from the grill and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve immediately on its own or as a filling for sandwiches and wraps.
