- Meanwhile, cook 1 pound of green beans in a saucepan of salted boiling water for 2 minutes, or until bright green.
- Drain the green beans, immediately rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process, drain again, and allow to cool to room temperature. Cut into thirds.
- Preheat your barbecue plate to high heat.
- Grill the marinated mushrooms for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and tender, turning occasionally.
- Remove the mushrooms from the barbecue and set aside to cool to room temperature.
