Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, and honey or maple syrup until smooth. Add freshly chopped thyme, rosemary, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper, giving the mixture a vibrant blend of flavors.
  2. Marinate the Mushrooms: Place the mushrooms in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, then pour the prepared marinade over them, sealing the bag or covering the dish. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, ideally 2 to 3 hours.
  3. Soak the Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes before grilling.
  4. Preheat the Grill: After soaking the skewers and marinating the mushrooms, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates with a paper towel soaked in cooking oil.
  5. Assemble the Skewers: Remove mushrooms from the refrigerator and thread them onto the skewers, alternating with colorful vegetables if desired.
  6. Grill the Skewers: Place the assembled skewers on the grill, grilling for about 10 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally until the mushrooms are tender and slightly charred.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Transfer grilled skewers to a serving platter and sprinkle with fresh parsley or chives before serving.

Notes

For best flavor, allow marinating for several hours or ideally overnight. Keep the grill at medium-high heat and avoid overcrowding the skewers for even cooking.
