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 Oven 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.
- Make Honey Garlic 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.
- Coat Mushrooms: Place the cleaned mushrooms in a large mixing bowl and toss them evenly with the honey garlic sauce, ensuring each mushroom is well coated.
- Arrange Mushrooms: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Spread the mushrooms out in a single layer to prevent overcrowding and to promote even roasting.
- Roast Mushrooms: Roast the mushrooms in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes. Halfway through the cooking time, stir or toss the mushrooms to ensure they roast evenly and develop a golden brown color.
- Serve and Garnish: Once the mushrooms are tender and golden brown, remove them from the oven. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
- Use cremini mushrooms for a richer flavor, but button mushrooms work well too.
- Do not overcrowd the mushrooms on the baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
- Adjust the amount of honey if you prefer a sweeter or less sweet sauce.
- Fresh parsley adds a nice color and fresh taste but can be omitted.
- This dish can be served as a side or tossed into salads and pasta for extra flavor.
