6 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and caps sliced about 1/2 inch thick
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 1/2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (from about 1 1/2 lemons)
Leaves from 4 fresh thyme sprigs
3 garlic cloves, smashed

1
In a resealable plastic bag, combine the shiitakes, soy, vinegar, oil, brown sugar, hot red pepper flakes, and garlic.
2
Seal the bag and marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature and up to overnight in the refrigerator.

Transfer the mushrooms and marinade to a small skillet over medium-high heat.
4
Cook the mushrooms, mixing often, until the liquid from the marinade and the mushrooms evaporates and the mushrooms darken in color, about 7 minutes.
5
Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
6
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients.
7
Add the thinly sliced Brussels sprouts, followed by the cooked mushrooms, and toss well.
8

9
Arrange the salad on plates and garnish each serving with a couple good pinches of pecorino and more black pepper.
