Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel. Trim the stems if needed and slice them into thick pieces.
Finely mince the garlic and chop the fresh parsley. Set them aside.
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and starts to foam.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
Toss in the sliced mushrooms and spread them out into a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes to allow for caramelization.
Stir the mushrooms and sprinkle in the red chili flakes, ground black pepper, and salt. Continue to cook for another 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and golden brown.
Drizzle soy sauce over the mushrooms and stir to evenly coat them. Cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Turn off the heat and stir in fresh lemon juice. Garnish with chopped parsley and give it a final mix.
Serve hot as a side dish, or use as a topping for toast, pasta, or even a grilled steak. Enjoy!
