Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 2 pounds mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari)
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme, chopped (or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Toss the mushrooms: In a large bowl, combine the mushrooms with oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, chopped garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss thoroughly until the mushrooms are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
- Roast: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the seasoned mushrooms in a single layer on a baking pan. Roast for about 20 minutes, stirring or mixing halfway through to ensure even cooking. Roast until the mushrooms are tender and infused with the flavors of the marinade.
Notes
- Use fresh thyme for a brighter flavor, or dried thyme if fresh is unavailable.
- For a gluten-free version, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
- Feel free to use a mix of mushroom varieties like cremini or button mushrooms for added texture.
- Adjust salt and pepper according to your taste preference.
- Serve warm as a side dish or topping for grilled meats, salads, or pasta.
