Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Button mushrooms (or cremini mushrooms)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- 4 wedges Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel or brushing off any dirt. If the mushrooms are large, cut them in half; otherwise, keep them whole.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Add the mushrooms to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the spice mixture. Let them marinate for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Thread the mushrooms onto metal or pre-soaked wooden skewers, or place them directly on the grill if they are large enough to handle.
Grill the mushrooms for 4–5 minutes per side, or until they are tender and have developed a nice char. Avoid overcooking, as this can make them mushy.
Remove the mushrooms from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for garnish.
Serve the spicy grilled mushrooms with lemon wedges on the side for a burst of freshness.
