Chef's Tip
If you’re cooking over an open fire, cover your planks while the mushrooms cook to get even more wood flavor. A skillet or Dutch oven turned upside down makes a great lid. If you are using a grill, just keep the lid closed.
Directions:
- Light a fire in advance, allowing the flames to die down and the coals to develop.
- Soak the planks in hot water for 15 minutes.
- Cut morels in half lengthwise and brush away any debris.
- Break the garlic into cloves. Peel and use the back of a knife to gently smash each clove.
- Add all ingredients to a bowl and toss to combine.
- Lay the mushrooms on the planks and set to cook over the fire. If you have a lid, cover the plank and cook for 15 minutes. Add 5 minutes to the cooking time if you’re unable to cover your plank. The dish is ready when the garlic has softened.
- Serve immediately.
*Keep a spray bottle of water handy in case of flare-ups.
