Garlic Mushroom Kabobs
The best and easiest mushrooms ever! It’s so good, you’ll want to make it every single day of the week!
After making those veggie kabobs last week, I found myself only picking off the mushrooms. Now I actually liked every single one of those veggies on the skewers but those mushrooms… well, they were clearly the star of the kabobs. So on my next grocery run, I stocked up on all the mushrooms I could find to make solo mushroom kabobs. And boy, was I in for a treat.
These kabobs come together so quickly and easily with a simple balsamic marinade. All you need are some pantry herbs and you’re set. Easy peasy, right? From there, you can thread these bad boys onto some skewers and throw them right into the oven or on the grill.
When ready to serve, you can serve these as a side or appetizer to any meal. Although if you’re anything like us, you’ll devour this as a meal like there’s no tomorrow! Who needs a main dish anyway?

Can this recipe be served chilled and/or eoom temp?
These were delicious. We had them with your flank steak.
I want to make these at the same time as a chicken that needs a 375 degree oven.
Would the recipe work if I were to switch from 425 to 375?
Going to make these on our camping trip. I do not have a garlic press. Can I just use minced garlic instead?
Absolutely!
These were very good! My only recommendation is to cut back on the balsamic vinegar a bit. I think equal parts vinegar and oil should be fine, otherwise the mushrooms have a bit too much liquid.
This was so good. Meaty flavor. Adding this to the rotation
Just made these today for a healthy snack while watching football. My only complaint is how fast they disappeared – they are so delish, and I want more! Lol.
I made these today and put the skewers on the Traeger Grill, they were SO good and a big hit! I thought some would be left to snack on tomorrow, but they all got eaten! I ended up marinating them about 1/2 hour.
What can I use besides balsamic vinegar? Thanks!
Here is a great forum discussing possible substitutes. Hope that helps!
I LOVE your blog! Every time I search a recipe, your blog always comes up and it looks so delicious and easier than all the others. Thanks for all you do!! I am making these delicious mushrooms to have with dinner tonight, ( I have several of your recipes on the menu this week) they look amazing!
What other types of mushroom can I use aside from cremini mushrooms?
White button mushrooms will also work very well for this recipe.
I love cremini mushrooms! And when I make these, I think I’ll skip the skewers and just roast them loose in the pan. Can’t wait!
Made it tonight, added cauliflower and asparagus. ..Delicious .
These look divine!! I’m going to make them on Sunday for a side dish for 13 people, and can’t decide if I should double or triple the recipe. Is one serving just one skewer? Thanks!
It may be best to triple the recipe just to be safe since these are sure to disappear fast!
Could I leave the mushrooms in the marinate for about 6 hours and then put them in the oven? Or will they get too mushy/soggy?
I actually haven’t tried a 6 hour marinade but yes, I do worry a bit about sogginess.
I never heard of or seen cremini mushrooms. Where do I find them?
You can find them at your local grocery store but if they are unavailable, white button mushrooms would also be a great substitute.
Do they need to be on skewers, or could I just scatter them on a tray and put them in the oven?
Yes, absolutely – you can certainly toss them onto a baking sheet/dish in a single layer.
How are these re-heated?
They tasted just as great re-heated!
Just made these, don’t think I added enough garlic. But they were delicious!
These look so delicious!! I can imagine myself gobbling these with some warm rice!! Yumm!
