Roasted Balsamic Baby Bella Mushrooms

I was gifted these Baby Bella Mushrooms so I thought I would cook them a different way, in the oven! This was my first time cooking mushrooms in the oven and I was very pleased with the results. I tossed the mushrooms in balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, garlic and red pepper flakes (optional) then I baked them. I took the leftover liquid in the pan and tossed it with some rice for a meal. You can use this recipe to bake with any type of mushroom as long as you adjust the time due to the size.

I couldn’t resist these huge Baby Bella Mushrooms.

Remove the stems and discard or save them

for another use. Rinse the dirt off of the

mushroom then pat dry with a paper towel.

In a bowl combine the rest of the ingredients.

Place a mushroom into the bowl coating

it well on both sides with the sauce,

place it on the pan and repeat.

Place the mushrooms onto a large baking

pan with the top of the mushroom facing up.

Bake in a preheated 400º oven for 10 minutes

then remove the pan and baste the

mushrooms with the liquid.

Bake another 10-15 minutes or until

cooked through, then baste again.

Remove the mushrooms from the pan then serve.

I used the liquid from the pan and tossed it with

about 3 cups of cooked rice to serve as a meal.

I used the leftover liquid and poured it over about 3 cups of cooked rice for a side dish.

  1. The theme of the week must be mushrooms! What a nice gift to have received.

    I do like the sauce that you created to marinate the mushrooms in. Sounds very tasty and savory!

  2. We just love-love mushrooms and are always looking for new ways to prepare them! And voila, Diane to rescue (again) … we will try this delicious-looking recipe for sure!

  3. They are huge! At first glance in the photo I thought they were potatoes. Our neighbor made stuff portabellas once. She wanted to try them, bought two packages and shared. They were a meal in themselves so I see why you just added rice and had your meal, no meat needed.

      • There was a young woman with a basket at Council Point Park one morning and she came up to me and said she saw my bag and asked if I was collecting mushrooms. They were peanuts in the bag. I said “no” and had never seen people collect mushrooms since I began walking in 2013. Kind of surprised me. I’d buy them rather than chance what was edible or not but I’m a chicken. 🙂
