# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The roasted mushrooms develop this incredible meaty texture that even skeptics cannot stop eating
  • The chili crisp dressing hits every flavor note spicy, salty, savory, and slightly sweet
  • Everything comes together on one sheet pan while the grain base cooks
02 -
  • Crowding the mushrooms on the baking sheet will steam them instead of roasting so use two sheets if needed
  • The dressing can be made ahead but bring it to room temperature before serving so it pours easily
03 -
  • Let the roasted vegetables rest for 5 minutes before assembling so they develop those irresistible crispy edges
  • Taste the dressing before adding to the bowls since chili crisp brands vary wildly in salt and spice level
