Grilled Scallops And Mushrooms In Foil Packets Food

GRILLED MUSHROOMS IN FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Cut four 12-by-12-inch squares of heavy aluminum foil, or eight squares of regular aluminum foil (stack two sheets each of the lighter foil to make four squares).
• In a large bowl, combine the mushrooms, herbs, garlic, salt and pepper, and olive oil. Use a large spoon to blend the ingredients.
• Brush the dull side of the aluminum squares with olive oil, and divide the mushrooms among the four squares. Fold the squares over and crimp the edges together to form well-sealed packets. Place on a hot grill, and grill 20 to 25 minutes. Remove one packet from the grill, and place on a plate. Carefully open it to check for doneness. The mushrooms should be tender and juicy. Either transfer to plates or bowls (there will be lots of juice), or cut the packets and eat the mushrooms directly from them. Have lots of crusty bread on hand to sop up the juices.

GRILLED MUSHROOMS AND ONIONS IN FOIL

Steps:

• Fold an 18-inch wide piece of aluminum foil so it is square.
• Place onions, mushrooms, and garlic in the middle of the foil. Arrange butter pieces on top of vegetables and drizzle with steak seasoning. Bring 4 corners of the foil together in the center, and crimp any open spaces to seal packet.
• Place the foil packet on the preheated grill and cook until vegetables are tender, about 45 minutes. Remove from grill, open packet carefully, and serve.

MUSHROOMS AND GARLIC GRILLED IN A PACKET

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium (if you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 5 to 6 seconds). Cut a piece of heavy-duty foil and a piece of parchment to 12 by 18 inches. Place foil on a work surface; lay parchment on top. Toss mushrooms, garlic, parsley, thyme, and oil in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Mound mushroom mixture in center of parchment, allowing a 3-inch border all around.
• Hold the long sides of parchment and foil; bring together, and fold twice, creasing to seal firmly. Fold short ends twice, creasing to seal firmly.
• Grill packet until you hear mushrooms and liquid sizzling, 10 to 15 minutes. Flip packet, and grill until mushrooms are soft, about 15 minutes more. (Press lightly to test tenderness, or unfold center of packet to check, but be careful of steam escaping.) Remove packet, and let stand 5 minutes before serving.

BAKED SCALLOPS AND MUSHROOMS IN GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Rinse the scallops in cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
• Remove the stems from the mushrooms and reserve both the stems and caps.
• Brush a shallow (8- to 9-inch diameter) baking dish with 1 tablespoon of olive oil; preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Toss the scallops with the flour and arrange them with the mushroom caps in a single layer in the dish.
• Pour the wine into the dish along the edge.
• Finely chop the mushroom stems and mix them with the bread crumbs, onion, parsley, garlic, pepper flakes and salt. Sprinkle this mixture over the scallops and mushrooms.
• Drizzle with the remaining olive oil.
• Bake in the heated oven until the mushrooms are soft and scallops are cooked through, about 30 minutes.
• Serve warm, or cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours.
• To reheat, loosely cover with foil and bake for about 45 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
