Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Button mushrooms or cremini mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 pieces Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel or brush off any dirt. Avoid rinsing them under water, as they can become soggy.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, parsley, thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the marinade until well combined.
Add the mushrooms to the marinade, tossing them gently to ensure they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 20-30 minutes at room temperature. For better flavor, you can refrigerate them in the marinade for up to 2 hours.
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat. If baking, preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Thread the marinated mushrooms onto skewers, leaving a small amount of space between each mushroom for even cooking.
If grilling, lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, turning occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and slightly charred. If baking, arrange the skewers on a lined baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Remove the skewers from the heat and serve immediately. Garnish with extra chopped parsley if desired.
