Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound button mushrooms, cleaned
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste
  • fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Gently wipe each button mushroom with a damp cloth to remove any dirt.
  2. In a bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of olive oil with 4 minced garlic cloves, 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste.
  3. Place the cleaned mushrooms in the bowl with the marinade.
  4. Toss gently to ensure each mushroom is coated evenly.
  5. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  6. Preheat your grill or stovetop pan over medium-high heat until hot.
  7. If using a grill pan, lightly brush it with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  8. Carefully place the marinated mushrooms on the grill or pan in a single layer.
  9. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side or until they turn golden brown and are tender when pierced with a fork.
  10. Just before finishing cooking, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the mushrooms.
  11. Give them a quick toss to mix in the herbs.
  12. Serve hot as a side.

Notes

Storage: Store any leftover sautéed grilled garlic mushrooms in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Make sure they are completely cooled before sealing to maintain freshness.

Reheating: To reheat, place the mushrooms in a skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until warmed through. You can also microwave them in short intervals, stirring in between, until heated to your liking.

Serving: Serve the sautéed grilled garlic mushrooms warm as a side dish alongside your favorite vegetarian or grilled meats. They can also be tossed into salads or pasta for added flavor and texture.

Chef’s Tip: For extra flavor, consider adding a splash of balsamic vinegar or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the marinade. This will enhance the taste and add a delightful kick to the mushrooms!
