Ingredients

• 450 grams Cremini mushrooms
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly ground
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel or brushing off any dirt. If the mushrooms are large, cut them in halves or quarters to ensure even roasting.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture together to create the marinade.

Step 4

Add the mushrooms to the bowl and toss them well, ensuring that each mushroom is evenly coated with the marinade.

Step 5

Spread the mushrooms out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded for even roasting.

Step 6

Roast the mushrooms in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through to ensure they cook evenly. The mushrooms should be tender and slightly caramelized when done.

Step 7

Remove the mushrooms from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added flavor and color.

Step 8

Serve immediately as a side dish or use as a topping for grilled meats, salads, or pasta. Enjoy!
