I made this as a side but I think it could actually be a relatively light main perhaps augmented with a soup. Or an option for a veggie

I found some Maitake mushrooms at a Sprouts near me.
But if you can't find them of course you can substitute them. I think you would be better with a mixture of shiitake and maybe some portobello mushrooms because Bella mushrooms are pretty bland and the Maitake had a more distinctive flavor. Less pronounced than a shiitake which is why the combination would probably be very good.

First time using them for me as well.
I also like the distinctive taste of shiitake mushrooms - the maitake mushrooms also had a more distinctive flavor.
Baby Bellas and standard white mushrooms have a much subtler taste - they are kind of the little black dress of the mushroom world

I did drizzle with balsamic glaze - it keeps well and is a nice addition to a lot of roasted stuff
Balsamic Glaze
This balsamic glaze is a must-have accompaniment to drizzle over fish, poultry, vegetables, pasta, salads, and even fruit. It can turn any dish from ordinary to extraordinary with its perfectly balanced, intense flavor of sweet and tangy. It adds a beautiful, deep pop of color to any dish to create a perfect, professional presentation. I make a large batch and have it on hand in the fridge at all times. Once you start adding this balsamic glaze to dishes you will become addicted and crave its intense flavor.
Yield: 1 Cup
Ingredients
2 cups balsamic vinegar
½ cup brown sugar
Directions
Gather all ingredients.
Mix balsamic vinegar with brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low and simmer until glaze is reduced by half and coats the back of a spoon, about 20 minutes.
Let cool, then pour into a lidded jar. Seal and store in the refrigerator.
Recipe Tips
The flavor of this glaze is intense, so it should be used as a drizzle.
Substitute raspberry or any other flavored balsamic vinegar to suit your taste. Instead of brown sugar, you can use molasses, honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar.
Cook's Note:
Some of my favorite ways to serve it are with Gorgonzola cheese and green onions; on pasta, portobello mushrooms, or grilled beets and carrots; with salmon or chicken; or as a dressing on a salad with toasted nuts, dried cranberries, or fresh strawberries.
