Ingredients:

  • 1 pound (450g) fresh mushrooms, cleaned and halved
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free option)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the Mushrooms: Clean the mushrooms and cut them in half. If they are large, you can quarter them for even roasting.
  3. Make the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
  4. Marinate the Mushrooms: Place the mushrooms in a large bowl and pour the marinade over them. Toss the mushrooms until they are well-coated with the marinade.
  5. Roast in the Oven: Spread the mushrooms evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender and golden brown, stirring halfway through.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Once roasted, garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve the Balsamic Soy Roasted Garlic Mushrooms as a side dish alongside your favorite main course.
