Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon light brown sugar or Sucanat

2 garlic cloves -- minced

12 ounces fresh mushrooms -- see note, up to 16

Minced fresh parsley -- for garnish

 

4 to 6 servings

 

Note: Use any variety of mushrooms: (white, portobello, shiitake, crimini,

baby bella, or a combination)

 

This preparation is similar to Broiled Mushrooms Teriyaki, but the lemon

and garlic flavors make it compatible with Italian or fusion pasta dishes.

 

Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, brown sugar, and garlic in a medium

mixing bowl, and stir together.

 

Wipe the mushrooms clean. If using shiitakes, remove and discard the

stems. Leave the mushrooms whole (though if you're using large

portobellos, slice them 1/4 inch thick).

 

Combine the mushrooms with the lemon-garlic mixture, and stir

together. Arrange the mushrooms in a shallow, foil-lined pan, and pour any

excess marinade over then.

 

Broil under a preheated oven broiler or a toaster oven broiler for 4

minutes, then stir. Broil again until the mushrooms begin turning dark and

are touched with charred spots, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the

broiler and transfer to a covered serving container until needed. Garnish

with the parsley before serving.
