Grilled Mushroom Skewers With Balsamic Sauce Recipe

If you’re already thinking about firing up the grill and wondering what sides you should add, look no further than this dish! Well, if you love mushrooms that is. In this recipe, mushrooms are the star of the show, grilled to perfection and glazed with a simple balsamic sauce.

This is the perfect recipe for when you want to grill up a vegetable to serve but don’t want to spend a ton of time prepping and cutting your produce for cooking. It’s also a perfect way to impress any vegetarians you might have attending your cookout!

This recipe calls for two pounds of mushrooms of your choice, so think about the kind you’d like to use before you go out shopping. A larger variety like portabella will require some additional prep, while a smaller or unevenly shaped choice like cremini may not stay on the skewer easily.

For this dish, whole button mushrooms (especially if you can find them locally grown at a farmer’s market) seem to be the best choice, but take a look at your options and see which looks like the best for you.

Since you’ll be outside grilling anyway, consider some potential main courses you can serve these mushroom skewers alongside. Some great choices are the grilled char-siu chicken or this grilled ginger lamb chops dish. If neither of those sounds good, try searching “grilled” above for a ton of options!
