Grilled Portobello Mushrooms with Ginger Marinade
A delicious and flavorful dish featuring grilled portobello mushrooms marinated in a zesty ginger concoction.
Ingredients
| 4 | large portabella mushrooms |
|---|---|
| 1⁄4 | cup balsamic vinegar |
| 1⁄2 | cup pineapple juice |
| 2 | tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and chopped |
| 1 | tablespoon fresh basil, chopped |
Instructions
| 1. | Begin by cleaning the large portabella mushrooms with a damp cloth and delicately removing their stems. |
|---|---|
| 2. | Arrange the mushrooms in a glass dish, ensuring the stemless (gill) side is facing up. |
| 3. | To prepare the marinade, in a small bowl, skillfully whisk together the balsamic vinegar, pineapple juice, and freshly chopped ginger. |
| 4. | Drizzle the marinade generously over the mushrooms, ensuring each piece is well coated. |
| 5. | Cover the dish and allow the mushrooms to infuse with the marinade in the refrigerator for approximately 1 hour, remembering to turn the mushrooms midway through for even flavor. |
| 6. | Next, ignite a hot fire in a charcoal grill or preheat a gas grill or broiler to the desired temperature. |
| 7. | Prior to grilling, lightly coat the grill rack or broiler pan with cooking spray, positioning it 4 to 6 inches away from the heat source. |
| 8. | Grill or broil the marinated mushrooms on medium heat, skillfully turning them often to ensure even cooking, until they reach a tender consistency, typically taking about 5 minutes per side. |
| 9. | To prevent the mushrooms from drying out, baste them occasionally with the remaining marinade. |
| 10. | With the aid of tongs, delicately transfer the grilled mushrooms to a decorative serving platter. |
| 11. | To enhance the dish, garnish with freshly chopped basil and serve immediately to enjoy its delightful flavors. |
