Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Button mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the stems if necessary but leave the mushrooms whole.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and chop the parsley. Set them aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet and sauté them for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to release their liquid and turn golden brown.
Reduce the heat to low and add the minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, to avoid burning the garlic.
Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Let the mushrooms absorb the flavors for another 2-3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the mushrooms.
Serve immediately as an appetizer or side dish with a garnish of extra parsley and a wedge of lemon if desired.
