Tips

NoteUse garlic powder rather than fresh minced garlic — fresh burns before the mushrooms finish.

NoteScrape out the dark gills with a spoon first if you want a neater look and milder flavor.

NoteSlide one into a toasted bun with pesto and arugula and dinner upgrades itself.

Frequently asked

Should I remove the gills?+

Optional — removing them looks cleaner and tastes milder, but they're perfectly edible.

No grill?+

A hot grill pan or a 425°F oven both work; the oven takes about 15 minutes, flipping once.

What do I serve with them?+

They're burger-ready in a bun, great over polenta, or sliced into a grain bowl with whatever is in season.
