GRILLED MUSHROOM SKEWERS
To keep the mushrooms from falling through the grates, I skewered them (everything is better on a stick, or at least my 3-yr old thinks so).

Steps:
- Place 10 medium skewers into a baking dish and cover with water. It's important to soak the skewers for at least 15 minutes (more is better) or they will burn too quickly on the grill.
- Place all of the marinade ingredients in a food processor and pulse several times until marinade is nearly smooth.
- Rinse your mushrooms and pat dry. Cut each mushroom in half, so each piece has half of the mushroom stem.
- Place the mushroom halves into a large gallon-size ziploc bag, or a medium bowl and pour in the marinade. Shake the bag until all of the mushrooms are evenly coated in marinade. Refrigerate and marinate for 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat your grill about 300˚F
- Skewer the mushrooms snugly onto the bamboo/wooden skewers that have been soaking (no need to dry the skewers). Skewering the mushrooms was a little annoying at first until I got the hang of things. I've found that it's easiest to skewer them by twisting them onto the stick. If you just push the stick through, it may cause the mushroom to crack.
- Place the skewered mushrooms on the hot grill for about 3 minutes per side, making sure the mushrooms do not burn to the grill. The mushrooms are done when they are soft; as mushrooms should be :) Remove from the grill. Cover with foil to keep them warm until ready to serve.

Steps:
- Preheat a charcoal or gas grill to medium high. Swirl the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until melted. Add the garlic and soften about 2 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce.
- Put the mushrooms in a medium bowl, add the soy-garlic butter and toss until well coated. Thread the mushrooms on the skewers, putting 7 to 8 on each and leaving 3-inch handles at the ends.
- Put the skewers on the grill with the handles resting on or just off the edge of the grill (for easier handling, since they will get very hot) and cover. Cook, turning the skewers every 2 minutes or so and brushing with the butter after every turn, until the mushrooms are slightly charred all over and softened, 8 to 9 minutes. Sprinkle with the thyme and parsley or lemon zest if using and season with salt. Alternatively, melt a little extra butter and add the thyme, parsley and/or lemon zest if using and drizzle over the mushrooms.
- The sixth ingredient: Chopped fresh parsley or grated lemon zest, sprinkled over with the thyme; or you could melt a little extra butter at the end, add the thyme, parsley and or lemon zest and drizzle over.
GRILLED MUSHROOM KABOBS
Earthy grilled mushrooms taste like flame-kissed goodness. The balsamic vinegar adds just enough tanginess to the savory side. -Melissa Hoddinott, Sherwood Park, Alberta

BLACK BEAN CHILI WITH MUSHROOMS
Mushrooms and black beans are the perfect pairing for a hearty weeknight chili with a kick of heat from a fresh jalapeño. Seared minced mushrooms add a depth of flavor that balances an easy homemade chili spice mix of mild chile, warm cinnamon and smoky chipotle. If you'd like, you can substitute 1 1/2 cups of the broth for 1 1/2 cups of Mexican lager.

Steps:
- Spread the minced mushrooms on a clean dish towel or paper towel and squeeze out excess liquid. Heat the oil in a medium pot over high. Add the mushrooms with a pinch each of salt and pepper and cook, stirring every minute or so, until the mushrooms sear to a darker color and any remaining water in the mushrooms has cooked off, about 5 minutes.
- Lower the heat to medium and add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and browns slightly, about 5 minutes. Add the bell peppers, jalapeño and garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and beginning to brown. Add the chile powder, chipotle powder, cumin and cinnamon and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute, then add the tomato paste and mix.
- Lower the heat to medium-low and add the canned diced tomato and its juices, beans, broth, sugar and porcini mushrooms, if using. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover with the lid ajar and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Divide among bowls and serve with sour cream and cilantro.
Tips:
- Choose the right mushrooms. For this recipe, firm mushrooms like Portobello, Shiitake, or Cremini are best. Avoid softer mushrooms like Oyster mushrooms, as they may fall apart on the skewers.
- Marinate the mushrooms. Marinating the mushrooms in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices helps to infuse them with flavor and prevent them from drying out on the grill.
- Use metal or bamboo skewers. Metal skewers are more durable and can be reused, while bamboo skewers are more eco-friendly and can be soaked in water to prevent them from burning.
- Grill the mushrooms over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the mushrooms while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
- Serve the mushrooms immediately. Grilled mushrooms are best served hot off the grill. They can be garnished with fresh herbs, a squeeze of lemon, or a drizzle of olive oil.
Conclusion:
Grilled Mushroom Skewers in Red Chile Paste are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The mushrooms are marinated in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices, then grilled until tender and juicy. The red chile paste adds a spicy and smoky flavor to the mushrooms. These skewers are perfect for summer grilling and can be enjoyed by vegetarians and meat-eaters alike.
