Ingredients

  • 4 large portobello mushrooms, stems removed

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (for thickening)

  2. Marinate the Mushrooms: Place portobello mushrooms in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let them soak for at least 15 minutes, turning occasionally.
