Ingredients
  

Mushrooms
  • 4 pound mushrooms combination of crimini, royal trumpet, maitake, and oyster mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
Aromatics and Seasoning
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 pound shallots cleaned and sliced thin
  • 1 splash olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Finishing
  • 2 teaspoon red wine vinegar

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Large bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Clean the mushrooms and cut any larger ones into bite-sized pieces. If using whole small mushrooms, you can leave them whole.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the mushrooms with grapeseed oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  3. Roast the mushrooms for 15 minutes. While the mushrooms are roasting, mince the garlic and slice the shallots.
  4. After 15 minutes, add the minced garlic and sliced shallots to the baking sheet with the mushrooms. Drizzle with a splash of olive oil.
  5. Continue roasting for another 10 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and browned, and the shallots are softened.
  6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Stir in the chopped fresh thyme, cayenne pepper, and red wine vinegar. Toss to combine.
  7. Let the mixture cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld.

Notes

You can prepare this dish ahead of time. Roast the mushrooms and shallots as directed, then let them cool completely. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or in the oven before serving.
