Step 2: Whisk olive oil and balsamic vinegar together. Drizzle over the mushrooms. Thinly slice the garlic cloves and sprinkle them over the mushrooms, getting a slice or two inside each mushroom. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons of fresh thyme; season with salt and pepper.
Step 3: Roast at 425 degrees F for 5-10 minutes, until desired doneness is achieved. Eight minutes was perfect for me.
