Balsamic Glazed Oyster Mushrooms - Shawarma Style

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Put a pan or skillet on medium heat.

Step 2

Tear apart the oyster mushrooms into large, flat chunks. You want them to look kind of like steaks. Drizzle them with olive oil.

Step 3

Lay the oyster mushrooms flat in the pan, and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the mushrooms are golden brown and all the moisture has released and evaporated. You can use a grill press or spatula to press them down to help speed up the process.

Step 4

Place the oyster mushrooms on paper towels to drain, and make your spice mix & glaze.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and all the spices. In another bowl, mix together the lemon juice and balsamic glaze.

Step 6

With the oyster mushrooms laying flat, brush each side with a liberal layer of the spice mix.

Step 7

On a parchment lined baking sheet, layer the mushrooms on top of each other into a shawarma "shape" Add the 4 skewers to help the mushrooms stand upright.

Step 8

Drizzle the shawarma with the glaze, making sure to get in all the crevices. Wipe up any glaze that gets on the parchment paper to prevent scorching.

Step 9

Bake for 10 minutes at 400°F, add the rest of the glaze and bake another 10 minutes.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and slice down the edges to serve!
