Seasoned Mushrooms

My husband loves this recipe and now that it is grilling season, he is all for making these.  The mushrooms cook while you are grilling your other food and are usually ready by the time the rest of the food is done.  I make them up and put them in the packet and he grills them.  The mushrooms still retain most of their flavor, so for someone like me who likes their mushrooms more for texture than flavor, this recipe is not for you.  But for people who love mushrooms, my husband says they are delicious!

 

Seasoned Mushrooms

1 cups baby portabella mushrooms, sliced

1 cup olive oil

1 ½ Tbsp seasoning mix (below or use a similar already prepared mix)

1 ½ Tbsp course sea salt

Mix mushrooms, olive oil, and seasoning mix together in bowl.  Take a sheet of aluminum foil and place mixture in middle.  Top with sea salt.  Fold sides of foil over the mushrooms, and then take the ends and fold up, crimping over the ends with a double fold.

Get other grill food ready and heat up the grill to about 350-degrees.  The foil packet is cooked on indirect heat.  The temperature should stay between 300 and 350-degrees the entire time.  Cook for about 20-ish minutes.  Do not open the packet while cooking.  The mushrooms should be cooked but still firm.  It may take a time or two of cooking these to get it down perfectly with your grill and cooking style.  For reference, we use a gas grill and have not made these using a charcoal grill.  Store mushrooms in seasoned oil in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
