Roasted Mushrooms with garlic and Parmesan cheese make the perfect side dish recipe. I love these over a grilled steak or chicken. It is an easy vegetable idea for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner that will make anyone a mushroom lover, even kids!
With six food loving kiddos, I’ve learned that there are certain holiday food traditions you just can’t mess with or you will “ruin Thanksgiving forever!” That was the reaction when I suggested adding a side dish of mushrooms to our traditional Thanksgiving feast.
To combat the six kill-joys I have been blessed with, I made a batch of these roasted mushrooms a few weeks ago along side some gorgeous grilled steaks and seasoned with Parmesan and garlic. It was my version of a “soft opening” for a new holiday side dish.
They went over beautifully, except with my 4 year old who has become obsessive about “things” touching her food. Suddenly, all food must to be served in it’s natural state with no visible seasoning or complimentary ingredient stuck to it. Yeah, right. “Eat it or don’t” is the rule in our house but remember, there is no more food until breakfast 🙂
I acquired some monster sized mushrooms from Sam’s Club so most of my mushrooms had to be cut down to a smaller size, but if your mushrooms are normal size, just roast them whole. Be prepared for these to shrink, a lot! I would say the volume of the mushrooms was easily reduced by half. Next time, I will definitely be making a double recipe because for our big family, one pound just didn’t go far enough. They were that scrumptious!
If you would rather grill your mushrooms, then go print out my killer recipe for Grilled Mushroom Skewers!

1 pound mushrooms, cleaned, trimmed and large ones cut in half
3 large cloves garlic, minced
2 Tb olive oil
2 Tb chopped olives or capers
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/4 C chopped flat leaf Italian parsley
salt and pepper to taste
3 Tb butter
1/4 C fresh parmesan cheese, shredded
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees and lightly spray a shallow casserole dish with nonstick spray. In your dish, toss together the mushrooms, garlic, oil, olives or capers, lemon juice, parsley, salt and pepper. Dot the butter evenly over the top of the mushrooms and roast for 20 minutes, stirring half way through the cooking process.
Remove from the oven, turn on the broiler and place the oven rack on the highest level. Sprinkle the cheese over the mushrooms, return to the oven on the top rack and broil until the cheese melts and begins to brown, about 3 minutes.

Carole, where does all the water go from the mushrooms. We love them but they do emit a lot of water.

Hi Sue! When you roast them on a large sheet pan, there is plenty of space between the mushrooms so the water evaporates as they roast. If you keep them too close together or on top of each other, they will steam instead of roost.

Sandie- I don’t like olives either but they add a great salty flavor that just can’t be substituted. Chop them very fine and I promise you will love the results!
