Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds white mushrooms, stems trimmed flush with caps
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 disposable 13 by 9-inch aluminum roasting pan

Instructions

  • Coat mushrooms with oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper.
  • Mix butter, parsley, soy sauce, lemon juice, thyme, and garlic powder in a disposable 13x9-inch roasting pan.
  • For a charcoal grill, heat coals until partially covered with ash and grill is hot, about 5 minutes.
  • For a gas grill, heat on high until hot, about 15 minutes, then reduce to medium-high.
  • Clean and oil the cooking grate. Grill mushrooms gill side up until they release liquid and char, about 6 minutes.
  • Flip mushrooms and grill until the second side is charred, 4-6 minutes.
  • Transfer mushrooms to the prepared pan on the grill and cook, stirring, until butter melts and mushrooms look glazed, about 3 minutes.
  • Serve warm.
