Description
These balsamic soy roasted garlic mushrooms are rich in umami, with a tangy, savory glaze that comes together easily in the oven. Perfect as a side dish, grain bowl topper, or meatless main component.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds whole mushrooms (cremini or button), cleaned and halved if large
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
- 4 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Place the mushrooms in a large mixing bowl.
- Add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, thyme, black pepper, and salt.
- Toss until the mushrooms are evenly coated.
- Spread mushrooms in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
- Roast for 25–30 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until tender and caramelized.
- Remove from oven and serve warm.
Notes
- Do not overcrowd the pan—use two baking sheets if doubling the recipe.
- Roasting brings out the natural umami of the mushrooms, so minimal seasoning is needed.
- Add chopped fresh parsley or green onions just before serving for brightness.
