These tasty, quick-cooking balsamic glazed mushrooms are the easiest side ever for your bbq or grill!

I love these balsamic-glazed mushrooms, especially in the summer as the perfect side. They’re only a handful of ingredients and 15 minutes to make. Couldn’t be simpler!

They’re especially good with steak and chicken, so they’re the perfect accompaniment to your grilled and bbq’d foods in the summertime.

Balsamic glazed mushrooms are a little sweet and a little salty and a lot of perfect.

And! Cooked with caramelized shallots (YES). And! Cooked down in butter (DOUBLE YES)

It’s basically a whole pan of good stuff, cooked down until it’s made into even better delicious stuff.

I’m having a love affair lately with glazed balsamic sauce if you couldn’t tell. I especially love it when it’s used in a one-pan dish. You get double duty, then: only one pan to clean, and everything in that pan gets the benefit of smooth, rich, unctuously flavored balsamic syrupy goodness.

Because there’s something about that syrup. What starts out as balsamic vinegar slowly reduces and thickens and is the essence of umami, the fifth taste. It’s all kinds of flavors rolled into one.

And these balsamic glazed mushrooms benefit in the very best and possible way from all of it.

So let’s just balsamic syrup all the things together. Are you with me?

Balsamic Glazed Mushrooms and Onions

These mushrooms are a simple and flavorful side that cook quickly, making them perfect for weeknights! I prefer using small, whole button mushrooms, but if you wish to slice them, that will work, too.

You work hard. Dinner should be easy.

At Percolate Kitchen, we believe that the “third shift” of getting dinner ready shouldn’t mean reinventing the wheel every evening.

Recipes on our site are broken down into simple, step-by-step processes so you can be flexible with your time- make the meal fresh, prep the ingredients to assemble and cook later, or do a little bit of both.
