Elevate your next meal with these irresistible Nut-Free Satay Mushrooms, a flavor-packed twist on the classic satay dish. Perfect for allergy-friendly entertaining, this recipe swaps traditional peanut-based satay sauce for a creamy coconut milk marinade infused with soy sauce, fresh ginger, garlic, lime juice, and a hint of chili paste for a bold yet balanced taste. Tender cremini mushrooms soak up the savory marinade before being grilled to perfection, creating a smoky char and succulent texture that's sure to impress. Quick to prepare and easy to serve, these skewers are ready in under an hour and make a fantastic appetizer or side dish. Garnished with fresh cilantro, these skewers pair wonderfully with salads or rice dishes, delivering a satisfying, nut-free option to your table.
Begin by cleaning the cremini mushrooms. Wipe each mushroom with a damp cloth and trim the stems if needed. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine coconut milk, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, chili paste, vegetable oil, and salt. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the marinade is well combined.
Add the mushrooms to the marinade and toss to coat them evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the mushrooms to marinate for at least 20 minutes, up to 1 hour if time permits.
While the mushrooms are marinating, soak the bamboo skewers in water to prevent them from burning during cooking.
After marination, thread the mushrooms onto the soaked skewers, evenly dividing the mushrooms among the skewers.
Preheat a grill pan or barbecue grill over medium heat. Lightly oil the grill grates.
Place the mushroom skewers on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the mushrooms are tender and grill marks appear.
Remove the skewers from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve the nut-free satay mushrooms hot, perhaps alongside a fresh salad or as an appetizer.
