Mushrooms And Garlic Grilled In A Packet Recipes

GRILLED MUSHROOMS IN FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Cut four 12-by-12-inch squares of heavy aluminum foil, or eight squares of regular aluminum foil (stack two sheets each of the lighter foil to make four squares).
• In a large bowl, combine the mushrooms, herbs, garlic, salt and pepper, and olive oil. Use a large spoon to blend the ingredients.
• Brush the dull side of the aluminum squares with olive oil, and divide the mushrooms among the four squares. Fold the squares over and crimp the edges together to form well-sealed packets. Place on a hot grill, and grill 20 to 25 minutes. Remove one packet from the grill, and place on a plate. Carefully open it to check for doneness. The mushrooms should be tender and juicy. Either transfer to plates or bowls (there will be lots of juice), or cut the packets and eat the mushrooms directly from them. Have lots of crusty bread on hand to sop up the juices.

GRILLED MUSHROOMS AND ONIONS IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.
• Fold an 18-inch wide piece of aluminum foil so it is square.
• Place onions, mushrooms, and garlic in the middle of the foil. Arrange butter pieces on top of vegetables and drizzle with steak seasoning. Bring 4 corners of the foil together in the center, and crimp any open spaces to seal packet.
• Place the foil packet on the preheated grill and cook until vegetables are tender, about 45 minutes. Remove from grill, open packet carefully, and serve.

MUSHROOMS AND GARLIC GRILLED IN A PACKET

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium (if you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 5 to 6 seconds). Cut a piece of heavy-duty foil and a piece of parchment to 12 by 18 inches. Place foil on a work surface; lay parchment on top. Toss mushrooms, garlic, parsley, thyme, and oil in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Mound mushroom mixture in center of parchment, allowing a 3-inch border all around.
• Hold the long sides of parchment and foil; bring together, and fold twice, creasing to seal firmly. Fold short ends twice, creasing to seal firmly.
• Grill packet until you hear mushrooms and liquid sizzling, 10 to 15 minutes. Flip packet, and grill until mushrooms are soft, about 15 minutes more. (Press lightly to test tenderness, or unfold center of packet to check, but be careful of steam escaping.) Remove packet, and let stand 5 minutes before serving.

GRILLED GARLIC MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• 1. Heat 1 butter and oil over medium-high heat. Add shallots and garlic, cook, stirring, until slightly softened, and translucent, about 3 minutes.
• 2. You'll need a grill-proof dish, or alternatively, you could prepare these in foil packets (I use a glazed clay dish).
• 3. Layer mushrooms and butter bits, seasonings each layer with salt and cracked black pepper. Drizzle with sherry
• 4. Cover dish with foil. Grill over low coals about 20 minutes, or until cooked through, stirring occasionally.

GRILLED POTATO & MUSHROOM PACKAGES

Steps:

• Light a charcoal or gas fire. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Meanwhile, measure out three 20-inch-long sheets of 12-inch-wide foil and overlap two of them in a cross pattern. Mound the potato mixture in the middle of the cross and spread it out into a square that's about 1-1/2 inches deep all around. Fold the ends of the foil in and wrap the package tightly. Wrap the third piece of foil around the package to seal.
• When the grill is medium hot, put the package on the grate directly over the hottest part. Cover the grill, making sure that the top and bottom vents are open (if using a charcoal grill). Cook for 20 minutes. Using tongs, turn the package over and cook for another 20 minutes. If your fire is very hot, shorten the cooking times by a couple of minutes on both sides. If it's cooler, lengthen the total cooking time to 45 to 50 minutes.
• Open the package carefully with tongs; the steam will be very hot. The potatoes are done when they feel tender when pierced and some are deep brown and charred. Kept wrapped, they'll stay warm off the grill for 15 to 20 minutes.

GRILLED MUSHROOMS WITH GARLIC AND PARSLEY BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat a grill. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine butter, garlic, and 1/2 cup of the parsley, and mix well. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• To prepare the mushrooms, remove stems, lightly coat with olive oil, and grill until tender. Place a spoonful of the butter mixture on each mushroom, and bake until butter is melted, approximately 3 minutes.
• To serve, place on large platter, and sprinkle with remaining parsley.

GRILLED GARLIC BUTTER MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, and half the garlic. Add the mushrooms and gently toss the mushrooms so they are coated in the marinade. Set aside on your counter for 30 minutes.
• In a small saucepan melt the butter and add the remaining garlic and a pinch of salt.
• Oil your barbecue grill and preheat to medium. Skewer the mushrooms on kebab sticks. (See notes.)
• Grill the mushrooms for 5 minutes per side. When you flip them over, it is easiest to use two pairs of tongs. Set the grilled mushrooms on a plate and drizzle the garlic butter over the top. Serve immediately.

GARLIC MUSHROOM GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter to the pan then add the mushrooms.
• Allow the mushrooms to fry until golden brown then add the garlic, chilli and oregano. Allow to cook for another minute then season with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• To assemble the sandwiches, mix the mozzarella with the cheddar. Divide the cheese between four slices of bread. Top with mushrooms and sandwich with the remaining slices of bread. Generously butter both sides of the sandwich .
• Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook until the cheese has melted and the sandwiches are golden brown and crisp on both sides.
• Remove from the pan, slice and serve.

FOIL-PACK MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill for high heat. Lightly grease 4 large sheets of heavy duty aluminum foil.
• Stuff each mushroom with equal amounts of green onions and pine nuts. Place 6 mushrooms on each piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Seal the foil around the mushrooms, forming 4 packets.
• Place the foil packets on the preheated grill, and cook 20 minutes, until mushrooms are tender.

BUTTERY GRILLED MUSHROOMS
