Step 1

Preheat oven to 435F.

Step 2

Lightly wash mushrooms and trim stems to almost level with the base of the mushrooms. Set aside.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl combine all ingredients and mix well. Add 1/2-2/3 cup water to the mix and stir well. Taste and adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 4

In a baking dish that has been sprayed with olive oil spray and lined with parchment paper, place the mushrooms gills side up. Pour a bit of the spice mix on top, holding back enough to baste with.

Step 5

Place the dish in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

Step 6

After the 15 minutes have completed, and the mushrooms have released water, flip them over. If they have not released their water, put them back in the oven for another 5 minutes. Then baste the top.

Step 7

Lower the heat to 375 F and bake for 10-12 minutes.

Step 8

Take the leftover spice mix and put it in a saucepan with a bit of water and bring to a boil for a sauce.

Step 9

Serve mushrooms over a bed of cauliflower mash with a side of cooked green beans. Drizzle with chimichurri sauce and some of the spice sauce.    

Note

If you cannot get portobello mushrooms use a few handful of brown/ cremini mushrooms
