    Grilled Herb Mushrooms


    Source of Recipe

    Recipe Introduction


    The two parts of this recipe are important here, don't just leave out/off the dressing. Its the part that has the vinegar in it, where the marinade has the oil, the dressing has the acid or vinegar. You need that oil/vinegar balance for a marinade. The Philippines-inspired cold tomato and lime dressing is compatible with grilled fish or chicken as well as mushrooms.

    List of Ingredients




    1 Lb Large Button Mushrooms

    Marinade:
    1 C Olive Oil
    4 Cloves Minced Garlic
    1 Tsp Red Pepper Flakes
    1 Tbsp Chopped Fresh Parsley
    1 Tbsp Fresh Chopped Basil
    1/2 Tsp Salt
    1/4 Tsp Fresh Black Pepper

    Cold Tomato Dressing:
    3 Tomatoes, Peeled, Diced, Seeded
    3 Shallots -- Minced
    1/4 C Red Wine Vinegar
    1/4 C Tomato Juice
    1/4 C Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    1 Lime -- Juiced
    2 Tbsp Chopped Fresh Parsley
    2 Tbsp Chopped Fresh Basil

    Recipe



    Combine all marinade ingredients in a glass or ceramic bowl. Add the mushrooms, toss to coat and set aside to marinate for 1 hour at room temperature. Drain and discard marinade. Place on skewers* and grill, turning a few times about 7-10 mins, depending on your heat. Remove from skewers & top with dressing. Or just serve it on the side.

    *To prevent the bamboo skewers from splintering in the heat of the fire, soak them in cold water for about half an hour.
