Grilled Shiitake Skewers
These make the perfect side dish to grilled meats in the summer months.
Ingredients
- 24 whole Shiitake mushrooms (stems cut off)
- 6 bamboo skewers
- ½ cup (1 stick) butter
- 5 medium garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon finely minced fresh ginger
- 1 bunch chives, chopped
- 1 medium lemon, juiced
Instructions
- Heat grill.
- Run the skewer through the flat surface of each mushroom, place four mushrooms on each skewer.
- In small saucepan, combine butter, garlic and ginger and cook until butter melts and garlic sizzles (about 2 minutes). Remove from heat and add chives and lemon juice. Brush mushrooms with the seasoned butter and grill until heated through, about 2 minutes.
Notes
- WW Points were calculated assuming that not all the butter sauce would remain on the skewers.
