Ingredients
Scale
Mushrooms
- 1 pound cremini or button mushrooms, cleaned and trimmed
Sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Garnish
- Fresh parsley, optional
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Mushrooms: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel and trimming the stems slightly to ensure they roast evenly.
- Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting the flavors as needed.
- Coat the Mushrooms: Place the cleaned mushrooms in a large mixing bowl and pour the honey garlic sauce over them. Toss well to coat each mushroom evenly with the flavorful mixture.
- Prepare for Roasting: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup. Spread the coated mushrooms out in a single layer on the sheet to prevent overcrowding, which helps them roast evenly.
- Roast the Mushrooms: Roast the mushrooms in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes. Stir the mushrooms halfway through cooking to ensure all sides become golden brown and tender.
- Serve: Remove the roasted mushrooms from the oven once they are tender and golden. Transfer them to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
- Use cremini or button mushrooms for the best texture and flavor.
- Make sure not to overcrowd the mushrooms on the baking sheet to allow for even roasting.
- Adjust the amount of garlic and honey according to your taste preference.
- Fresh parsley adds a pop of color and freshness but can be omitted if unavailable.
- This dish pairs well with grilled meats, rice, or as a topping for toasted bread.
