Grilled Garlic Mushroom Skewers
• Smaller mushrooms cook faster and stay juicier on the grill. • Don’t overcrowd skewers too loosely, or mushrooms may spin while cooking. • Add a touch of smoked paprika or chili flakes to the marinade for extra depth. • These work well as a side for grain bowls, salads, or plant-based mains. Health Benefits: Mushrooms provide fiber, B vitamins, and antioxidants like selenium that support immune and metabolic health. Garlic and thyme contribute anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial compounds. Using olive oil adds heart-healthy fats, while soy sauce provides umami flavor that helps reduce the need for added salt or heavier sauces.

01If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning. 2. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, thyme, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. 3. Add mushrooms and toss until evenly coated. Let marinate for 10–15 minutes if time allows. 4. Thread mushrooms onto skewers, packing them snugly. 5. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. 6. Grill skewers for 8–12 minutes, turning every 2–3 minutes and brushing with extra marinade if desired, until mushrooms are tender and lightly charred. 7. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
