Herbed Mushroom Skewers

Herbed Mushroom Skewers are a delightful vegetarian dish featuring marinated mushrooms grilled to perfection, infused with aromatic herbs and spices. Perfect for a summer BBQ, these skewers are both flavorful and satisfying.

Ingredients

• Button mushrooms - 200 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Fresh thyme - 1 tablespoon, chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon

• Skewers - 4 (if wooden, soaked in water for 30 minutes)

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, chopped parsley, chopped thyme, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
2. Clean the button mushrooms with a damp cloth and add them to the marinade, tossing to coat evenly. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
4. Thread the marinated mushrooms onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each mushroom.

6. Remove from the grill and serve warm, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
