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.

How far in advance can the mushrooms be prepared prior to roasting them?

Karen- Feel free to prepare them the day before and store them in an airtight container. Then put them in the roasting dish and roast them as directed the next day -Carole

If I double the recipe, do I increase my cooking times?
Carole

Norm- as long as your mushrooms can lay in a single layer on your pan, the times should be about the same.

I’m confused as to what you did to the mushrooms before mixing everything with them?
Carole
11 years ago
Julia- I wiped them with a damp towel and cut any that were very large. You want them all to be about the same size so they roast in the same amount of time.

Could you do this recipe in a crockpot??
Carole

Debi- you “could” but I wouldn’t because the crock pot would steam them instead of roasting them at a high temp. The roasting really gives them a ton of flavor

Could you suggest something other than olives as my husband is deathly allergic to them. I use grapeseed oil istead of olive oil.
Carole

What about capers? Otherwise, just leave them out.

How about using smoked (or plain) boneless, skinless sardines? Dice them up with some garlic and mix with the olive oil.

Well, you will have to try this one Wade, because I am not brave enough to give it a try 🙂
