Meaty, juicy and savory Lion’s Mane mushroom steak recipe by Tales Of A Kitchen is out now! A gourmet vegan alternative with rich texture and umami flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large lion’s mane mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 3 tablespoons of soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon of thyme (fresh or dried)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the marinade: In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. This marinade will infuse the mushrooms with deep, savory flavors.
- Marinate the mushrooms: Gently clean the lion’s mane mushrooms with a damp cloth. Place the mushrooms in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb all the flavors.
- Cook the mushrooms: Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated mushrooms. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side, pressing them down gently with a spatula to create a nice sear. The mushrooms should be golden brown and tender when done.
- Serve: Transfer the lion’s mane mushroom steaks to a plate, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot. These steaks pair beautifully with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can double the marinade and baste the mushrooms as they cook.
- Lion’s mane mushrooms are delicate, so handle them gently to maintain their texture.
- This recipe works well as a base for experimenting with other seasonings like rosemary or a touch of lemon.
