Ingredients:

  • 8 cups mushrooms
  • 4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup lite olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried tarragon

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh lemon juice, lite olive oil, chopped parsley, and dried tarragon. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.

  2. Marinate the Mushrooms: Add the mushrooms to the marinade mixture in the bowl. Gently toss the mushrooms until they are evenly coated with the marinade.

  3. Cover and Refrigerate: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid to seal in the flavors. Place the marinated mushrooms in the refrigerator and let them marinate for at least 24 hours. This extended marinating time allows the mushrooms to absorb the flavors fully.

  4. Serve: After 24 hours, remove the marinated mushrooms from the refrigerator and bring them to room temperature before serving. You can serve them as a standalone side dish, incorporate them into salads, or use them to garnish various dishes for added flavor and visual appeal.

Recipe Notes:

  • For best results, use fresh mushrooms and rinse them thoroughly before marinating to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of fresh lemon juice, olive oil, and herbs according to your personal taste preferences.
  • These marinated mushrooms can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Make sure to consume them within this time frame for optimal flavor and freshness.
  • Experiment with different herbs and spices, such as garlic, thyme, or red pepper flakes, to customize the flavor profile of the marinade to your liking.
  • If you’re short on time, you can marinate the mushrooms for a minimum of 4-6 hours, although the longer marinating time yields the best results in terms of flavor infusion.
