Clean the button mushrooms with a damp paper towel, removing any dirt. Slice the mushrooms into thin pieces.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for approximately 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and most of the moisture has evaporated.
Mince the garlic cloves finely and add them to the mushrooms. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let cool.
In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, and lemon juice. Whisk together until smooth and creamy.
Finely chop fresh parsley and chives. Add them to the dressing mixture, stirring well to incorporate.
Once the mushrooms have cooled to room temperature, add them to the dressing and gently fold them in until they are well coated with the creamy mixture.
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the creamy mushroom salad as a refreshing side dish or enjoy it as a light main course.
