    Ingredients:

    • 1 pound button mushrooms, cleaned and trimmed
    • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
    • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (plus more for garnish, optional)
    • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    • 1 head broccoli, cut into florets
    • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
    • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
    • 1 zucchini, sliced (optional)

    Instructions:

    1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
    2. Prepare the vegetables: Cut the broccoli florets, bell pepper, red onion, and zucchini (if using) into similar bite-sized pieces.
    3. Toss the vegetables: In a large bowl, toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
    4. Incorporate the mushrooms: Add the mushrooms to the bowl with the vegetables and toss again to coat evenly.
    5. Spread on a sheet pan: Spread the vegetable and mushroom mixture in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
    6. Roast: Bake for 15 minutes.
    7. Add the flavorings: While the vegetables and mushrooms are roasting, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, thyme, and parsley in a small bowl.
    8. Season and Serve: After 15 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and drizzle with the garlic butter mixture. Toss everything to coat and return to the oven. Roast for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp and the mushrooms are golden brown.
    9. Garnish and Enjoy: Garnish with additional fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.

    Tips:

    • For firmer vegetables like broccoli florets, you can pre-roast them for 5 minutes before adding the mushrooms and other vegetables.
    • If your vegetables release a lot of liquid while roasting, you can extend the roasting time by 5-10 minutes to allow the liquid to evaporate and achieve a nice caramelization.
    • This recipe is easily customizable. Feel free to add other vegetables like cherry tomatoes, asparagus spears, or Brussels sprouts.
    • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan over low heat.

    With these simple steps, you can create a vibrant and flavorful sheet pan meal featuring roasted button mushrooms and a variety of delicious vegetables!
