Ingredients
For the Mushrooms:
1 pound fresh mushrooms (cremini or button)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
For the Grilling (Optional):
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Mushrooms: Wash the mushrooms thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel to avoid sogginess during cooking.
- Sauté Garlic: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter and olive oil until bubbling but not browned. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Grill (Optional): If grilling, brush the mushrooms with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill over medium heat for about 3–4 minutes on each side until lightly charred.
- Cook Mushrooms: If sautéing, add the mushrooms to the skillet and spread them out evenly. Let them cook undisturbed for about 5 minutes until they start turning golden brown. Season with salt and pepper, stir gently, and continue cooking for another 5–7 minutes until tender and beautifully caramelized.
- Finish and Serve: Remove from heat and toss in freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately as a side dish or atop pasta, steak, or burgers.
Notes
- For extra flavor, try adding fresh thyme or rosemary while cooking.
- Add chili flakes for a spicy kick or top with grated Parmesan for a cheesy twist.
