Clean the mushrooms thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Trim the ends of the stems and cut larger mushrooms in half, leaving smaller ones whole.
In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and begins to foam.
Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the mushrooms to the pan. Cook them for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown, stirring occasionally.
Pour the white wine into the pan and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom. Allow the wine to reduce by half, which should take about 3-4 minutes.
Add the chicken or vegetable broth and thyme sprigs to the pan. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low.
Cover the pan with a lid and let the mushrooms braise gently for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid.
Remove the lid and discard the thyme sprigs. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes to allow any excess liquid to evaporate.
Season the mushrooms with salt and black pepper to taste.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
