Marinated Mushrooms

Adapted from several recipes I found online
Date made: ???

1/2 lb mushrooms, cleaned*
1 green onion, chopped finely*
1/2 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp rosemary
1/2 tsp parsley
1/4 c balsamic vinegar
juice of 1 orange*
1/4 c olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Saute mushrooms in about 1 Tbsp olive oil on medium heat until it starts to sweat.  Add balsamic vinegar and green onion, bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and let simmer until tender.
Add herbs, salt, pepper, and orange juice.  Pour mixture into a sterilized mason jar, seal, and allow to cool.  Refrigerate for several hours to a few days.


I don't remember exactly how I made this dish, but I think this is about right.  I might've added a clove of garlic as well.  I really just wanted something to do with the crap load of citrus I'd been getting at Hollygrove.  I got sick the week prior and the resulting sore throat was rather averse to acids for a while.

After the mushrooms marinated for several days I tossed it with a box of cooked penne and added some salt.  The mushrooms turned out pretty tasty, if I do say so myself.  I would probably something else to dress up the pasta though.
