Instructions:

1. Prepare the Marinade:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the white wine, vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, and soy sauce. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined.
2. Clean the Mushrooms:
- Gently wipe the mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Avoid rinsing them under water as mushrooms absorb moisture. Trim any tough stems if necessary.
3. Marinate the Mushrooms:
- Place the cleaned portobello mushrooms in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the mushrooms, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap (or seal the bag) and refrigerate. Let the mushrooms marinate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour. For best results, marinate them for up to 4 hours, turning occasionally to ensure even marination.
4. Cook the Mushrooms:
- Grilling: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated mushrooms gill side up on the grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the mushrooms are tender and have nice grill marks.
- Pan-Searing: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small drizzle of olive oil to the pan. Place the marinated mushrooms in the skillet and cook for around 5-7 minutes per side until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
5. Serve:
- Transfer the cooked mushrooms to a serving plate. You can slice them into strips or serve them whole. They make a great side dish or a topping for salads, burgers, or sandwiches.
