- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and soy sauce until well combined.
Add the Dijon mustard to the bowl and whisk again until emulsified and smooth.

Place the cleaned portabella mushroom caps in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
Pour the prepared marinade over the mushrooms, ensuring each cap is fully coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse. For best results, marinate for 2-4 hours.
