Savory Grilled Mushrooms

Ingredients

Mushrooms

16 oz, cleaned and stems removed

Olive oil

3 tablespoons

Garlic

3 cloves, minced

Fresh thyme

2 tablespoons, chopped

Salt

1 teaspoon

Black pepper

1/2 teaspoon

Lemon juice

1 tablespoon, freshly squeezed

Instructions

1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).
2. Thoroughly clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth or paper towel, removing any dirt. Trim and discard the stems for better grilling.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
4. Brush the mushroom caps generously with the olive oil mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated for maximum flavor and moisture.
5. Place the mushrooms on the grill, cap side down, and grill for 5-7 minutes until they begin to release their juices and develop a nice char.
6. Carefully flip the mushrooms and continue grilling for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender and perfectly charred.
7. Once grilled to perfection, remove the mushrooms from the grill and drizzle with fresh lemon juice to enhance their natural flavors.
8. Serve hot as a delightful side dish or as a savory topping for your favorite burgers, salads, or grain bowls.
