Balsamic Garlic Spinach And Mushrooms Food

SAUTEED SPINACH AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saute pan or skillet (not nonstick) over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes (do not let the garlic brown). Push the garlic off to the side of the pan and add the mushrooms. Increase the heat to medium high and season the mushrooms with salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are cooked through and begin to become golden in spots, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Add the spinach, sprinkle with an additional pinch of salt and turn with tongs until wilted. (If you can't fit all the spinach in the pan, cover it for a few minutes, then uncover, stir and add the rest.) Transfer to a serving platter, drizzle with the vinegar and serve warm.

• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or you can also grill them outside. Remove the mushrooms from the marinade and reserve the marinade. Season the mushrooms with salt and pepper and drizzle with a bit of olive oil. Place on the grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until the mushrooms are tender. Once cooked, transfer to a serving platter.

Toss to coat and after about 30 seconds, pour on top of the plated portobellos.
