Ingredients

4 T extra virgin olive oil

2 T fresh mint, finely chopped

2 T fresh oregano, finely chopped

3 T fresh lemon juice

1 12 oz. jar roasted red pepper, drained well and diced into small pieces

1 pound fresh white or brown mushrooms

1/3 cup crumbled Feta cheese

salt, fresh ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 450F and line a roasting pan with aluminum foil. Wash the herbs finely chop. Drain the red peppers in a colander placed in a sink, then chop into small dice. Mix 2 T olive oil with the lemon juice; , diced red pepper, chopped mint, and chopped oregano. Set aside to marinate while you prep and roast mushrooms. Wash mushrooms and spin dry or dry with paper towels. Cut large mushrooms into quarters and smaller ones in half so you have same-size pieces and toss mushrooms with the remaining 2 T olive oil and salt and pepper. Arrange on foil-lined roasting pan. Roast at 450F for 15 minutes, until mushrooms are starting to get brown and liquid is mostly evaporated. Then turn mushrooms over with a metal spatula and return to oven to roast about 5 – 10 minutes longer. Mushrooms should be brown all over. Place mushrooms back into the bowl you used to toss them with olive oil, add the red pepper and herb misture, and gently combine. Taste and add more salt and pepper if desired. Arrange the mushrooms on a large serving platter, sprinkle with crumbled Feta cheese, and serve. This is good warm or at room temperature.
