Ingredients

• 4 pieces portabella mushrooms (large, cleaned and stems removed)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic (minced)
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). If using an oven, prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 2

Clean the portabella mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems and scrape out the gills with a spoon if desired.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Brush the marinade generously over both sides of the portabella mushrooms, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 5

Let the mushrooms marinate for 5–10 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Step 6

If grilling, place the mushrooms on the heated grill, gill-side down, and cook for 4–5 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 4–5 minutes until tender and slightly charred.

Step 7

If baking in the oven, arrange the mushrooms gill-side up on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until they are tender and juicy.

Step 8

Remove the mushrooms from the heat and allow them to cool slightly. Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top for a fresh finish.

Step 9

Serve warm as a side dish, a topping for salads, or a main course paired with rice or pasta.
