How to Make Bbq Sauced Bacon Mushrooms

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Remove stems from 1 pound of cremini mushrooms and rinse briefly. Pat completely dry with paper towels.
  3. Cut 6 slices of bacon in half. Wrap each mushroom cap with a half slice of bacon, ensuring the bacon adheres to the mushroom.
  4. Arrange bacon-wrapped mushrooms in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until bacon is golden brown and crispy.
  6. While mushrooms are baking, prepare the BBQ sauce: In a small bowl, combine ½ cup of your favorite BBQ sauce with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  7. Once the bacon is crispy, remove from the oven and gently toss the mushrooms with the BBQ sauce until evenly coated.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy! Optional: Garnish with chopped green onions.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
