Ingredients
- 4 large caps Portabella mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
1. Clean the portabella mushroom caps by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Carefully remove the stems and scrape out the gills with a spoon if desired (optional for a smoother taste).
Step 2
2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, honey or maple syrup, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Step 3
3. Place the mushrooms in a large, shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the mushrooms, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 20 minutes to absorb the flavors; you can let them marinate up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for a more robust taste.
Step 4
4. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Step 5
5. Remove the mushrooms from the marinade, letting the excess drip off before placing them on the grill. Reserve the remaining marinade for later use.
Step 6
6. Grill the mushrooms for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are tender and have developed grill marks. Baste with the reserved marinade occasionally for added flavor.
Step 7
7. Serve the grilled mushrooms warm as a side dish, burger patty substitute, or atop a salad. Garnish as desired and enjoy!
