A delightful recipe for roasted mushrooms infused with garlic and herbs, perfect as a side dish or appetizer.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated to achieve even roasting.
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth and remove the stems, setting them aside.
Avoid washing mushrooms under water as they can absorb moisture and become soggy.
In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, melted butter, chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Arrange the mushrooms, cap side up, in a roasting pan. Spoon the garlic butter mixture into each mushroom cap and drizzle the remaining mixture over the stems.
Distribute the mixture evenly for consistent flavor.
Place the roasting pan in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the butter is bubbling.
Check the mushrooms halfway through to ensure they are cooking evenly.
Serve the roasted mushrooms warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
Serve immediately to enjoy the full flavor and aroma.
