Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz brown mushrooms or a mushroom mix
  • 1 large garlic clove minced
  • 2 tsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp minced raw ginger measure after mincing
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes measure whole first and then mince them down
  • 1/4 tsp Himalayan salt
  • fresh ground pepper
  • 1 lime squeezed
  • 2 TBSP water

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 and line a baking sheet with parchment baking paper.
  2. Whisk together everything but the mushrooms in a small bowl. Let it sit for a good 15 minutes to marinate. Adjust to taste. Add in a little more maple syrup if you want it slightly sweeter.
  3. Meanwhile prep and cut off the tough stems from the brown mushrooms. If you are using a mix of mushrooms, leave all of the soft stemmed mushrooms as is. Quarter the extra large brown mushrooms, but half or leave the smaller mushrooms as is.
  4. Stir the sauce and mushrooms together until really well combined. If you have the time, let the mushrooms sit for 10 minutes to absorb a little more liquid prior to baking.
  5. Add the marinated mushrooms to the lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes. Due to the nature of mushrooms, there will be some liquid that runs off of them as they bake.
  6. Serve with your choice of rice, lettuce wraps, carrot shreds, cabbage shreds, cilantro, and whatever else your heart desires.
