Step-by-Step: How to Make Oven Roasted Baby Portobello Mushrooms with Garlic
First gather your ingredients:
- 12 baby portobello mushrooms
- Olive oil
- 1 clove of garlic, minced
- Sea salt, as desired
1. Preheat the oven
Set your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) so it's ready when your mushrooms are prepped.
2. Prep the mushrooms
Gently pop off the stems of each baby portobello mushroom. Avoid using a knife - pulling the stem out leaves more space for the garlic and juices to collect.
3. Season the mushrooms
Place the mushroom caps in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil and toss until coated.
4. Add the garlic
Arrange the mushrooms stem-side up on a baking sheet. Sprinkle minced garlic evenly inside each mushroom cap.
5. Roast until tender
Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the mushrooms are juicy and tender. Oven times can vary, so start checking around 10 minutes.
6. Serve and enjoy
Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle lightly with sea salt (and black pepper, if you like). Serve hot.

Mushrooms are one of those treasures wrapped in a disguise to hide their true worth. Not only are they very healthy, they are tender, juicy, meaty-ish morsels of Divinity. Large portobello caps, sliced, are like steak. Thank you for this recipe and yes, the juice that collects inside the caps, elixer!!!
