Ingredients

1/2 cup
finely chopped fresh parsley
125 mL
1/2 cup
olive oil, divided
125 mL
1 tsp
lemon juice
5 mL
1/2
small clove garlic, minced

each salt and pepper
2 mL
1 lb
large white button or cremini mushrooms, stems removed
500 g

Directions

Step 1

Stir together parsley, oil, lemon juice, garlic and thyme. Stir in salt and pepper. Set pesto aside while grilling mushrooms (or chill pesto up to 2 hr.).

Step 2

Brush all sides of mushroom caps with some of the oil floating on the pesto. Place caps, gill-side down, on BBQ preheated to medium-high. Grill 1 to 2 min. or until marked. Flip over. Grill 1 to 2 min., or until mushrooms are tender and juices start to pool in caps.

Step 3

Carefully transfer (avoid tipping out juices) mushrooms to serving platter. Spoon pesto into caps. Serve mushrooms warm.

Tip

Alternatively, cook mushrooms in skillet on stovetop on medium-high heat.
Use store-bought pesto.
