Ingredients

• 500 grams Cremini or button mushrooms
• 60 ml Olive oil
• 45 ml Red wine vinegar
• 3 whole Garlic cloves
• 15 grams Fresh parsley
• 5 grams Fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
• 125 ml Water

Directions

Step 1

Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel or brushing off any dirt. Trim the stems if necessary.

Step 2

In a large skillet or saucepan, combine the olive oil, water, and red wine vinegar over medium heat.

Step 3

Peel and slice the garlic cloves thinly. Add them to the skillet along with the dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes if using.

Step 4

Stir the mixture gently to combine and bring it to a simmer.

Step 5

Add the mushrooms to the skillet and stir well to coat them evenly in the marinade.

Step 6

Cover the skillet with a lid and cook over low heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and have absorbed much of the marinade.

Step 7

Meanwhile, chop the fresh parsley and thyme finely.

Step 8

Once the mushrooms are cooked, remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the honey, fresh parsley, and thyme.

Step 9

Transfer the mushrooms and their marinade to a clean glass jar or serving bowl. Let them cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to let the flavors meld.

Step 10

Serve chilled or at room temperature as a side dish, appetizer, or as part of a salad. Enjoy your delicious marinated mushrooms!
