Ingredients

These mushrooms are a testament to how a few simple ingredients can come together to create something magical. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 pound of button or cremini mushrooms, cleaned and trimmed
- 3 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
If you’re out of fresh mushrooms, canned ones can work in a pinch, though I recommend fresh for that perfect texture. Feel free to swap the olive oil with avocado oil if that’s what you have on hand. This recipe is all about flexibility—just like home cooking should be.
Instructions
Let’s get cooking! Follow these simple steps and you’ll have a delicious dish ready in no time:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to make clean-up a breeze.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Add the mushrooms to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the marinade.
- Spread the mushrooms in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Try not to overcrowd them for that perfect roast.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are golden brown and have soaked up the flavors beautifully.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let them sit for a couple of minutes. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
One tip from my kitchen: Make sure to stir the mushrooms halfway through roasting for even cooking. It also gives you a chance to savor that incredible aroma filling your kitchen.
