How to Make Bbq Sauced Bacon Mushrooms
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Remove stems from 1 pound of cremini mushrooms and rinse briefly. Pat completely dry with paper towels.
- Cut 6 slices of bacon in half. Wrap each mushroom cap with a half slice of bacon, ensuring the bacon adheres to the mushroom.
- Arrange bacon-wrapped mushrooms in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until bacon is golden brown and crispy.
- 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.
- Once the bacon is crispy, remove from the oven and gently toss the mushrooms with the BBQ sauce until evenly coated.
- 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.
