Ingredients
-
1 lb cremini or button mushrooms, cleaned and stems trimmed
-
3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
-
2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
-
2 tbsp olive oil
-
3 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 tsp fresh thyme (or ½ tsp dried thyme)
-
¼ tsp salt
-
½ tsp ground black pepper
-
Fresh chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
-
Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
-
Make the Marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper.
-
Marinate the Mushrooms: Add mushrooms to the bowl and toss to coat. Let them marinate for 20–30 minutes at room temperature.
-
Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high. Soak wooden skewers in water if using (to prevent burning).
-
Assemble Skewers: Thread the marinated mushrooms onto skewers, leaving a little space between each.
-
Grill: Place skewers on the grill and cook for about 2–3 minutes per side, turning occasionally and basting with leftover marinade, until mushrooms are tender and lightly charred.
-
Serve: Remove from the grill, sprinkle with parsley if desired, and serve warm.
Notes
-
Don’t over-marinate—30 minutes is perfect or mushrooms may get too soft.
-
For extra flavor, grill over charcoal or wood chips.
-
Great as a side, on salads, or in wraps!
