Ingredients

2 Tablespoons olive oil

In a seal type bag, combine the oil, vinegar, rosemay and lemon juice. Put the mushrooms into the bag, seal it and turn the bag over and over a few times to coat the mushrooms. Let them marinate for 15 minutes.

Place the mushrooms, cap side down and cook for 6 minutes. Flip to cap side up and cook another 6 minutes.

Season the mushrooms on each side as they are cooking with salt and pepper. Place the feta cheese onto the mushroom caps. Cover the skillet with a lid so you heat the cheese a little, cooking one minute longer.

Red Pepper Paste

In a blender, Combine 2/3rds of the jar of roasted red peppers, with the oil, parsley, and garlic. Pulse to make a thick sauce.
