Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds whole cremini or button mushrooms, cleaned and trimmed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 tablespoon fresh)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the mushrooms.
- Mix Marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, thyme, black pepper, and salt until well combined.
- Coat Mushrooms: Add the cleaned and trimmed mushrooms to the bowl and toss them thoroughly so they are evenly coated with the marinade.
- Arrange Mushrooms: Transfer the coated mushrooms to a large baking dish or sheet pan, spreading them out in a single layer to ensure even roasting.
- Roast Mushrooms: Roast in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time to promote even caramelization and tenderness.
- Finish and Serve: Remove the roasted mushrooms from the oven, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness, and serve warm as a side dish, appetizer, or topping.
Notes
- For extra depth of flavor, marinate the mushrooms for 30 minutes before roasting.
- Add a splash of Worcestershire sauce for an umami boost.
- Include a pinch of red pepper flakes to introduce a spicy kick.
