Elevate your appetizer game with this tangy and flavorful Marinated Artichoke Hearts and Mushrooms recipe! Featuring tender button mushrooms simmered to perfection and combined with marinated artichoke hearts, this dish gets its bold, Mediterranean-inspired flavor from a zesty blend of extra-virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, fresh parsley, and a kick of red pepper flakes. A hint of lemon juice adds brightness, while oregano ties all the flavors together with an earthy touch. Quick to prepare with just 15 minutes of prep time, this vibrant side dish comes to life after a few hours of marinating, letting the flavors meld beautifully. Serve it chilled or at room temperature for a light and refreshing appetizer or an elegant addition to any meal.
Clean the mushrooms thoroughly with a damp paper towel and trim the stems as needed.
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil, then add the mushrooms. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
While the mushrooms are cooling, prepare the marinade. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, parsley, oregano, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
Once the mushrooms are cool enough to handle, add them to the marinade along with the drained and chopped artichoke hearts. Toss everything together until the vegetables are well-coated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, marinate for 3-4 hours.
Before serving, give the mixture a gentle toss to redistribute the marinade. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with additional parsley, if desired.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a side dish or appetizer.
