Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Cremini or button mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms using a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the stems if needed and slice larger mushrooms in half, leaving smaller ones whole.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil and butter. Let the butter melt completely.
Add the mushrooms to the pan and spread them out in an even layer. Let them cook without stirring for 3-4 minutes to get a nice golden sear on one side.
Stir the mushrooms and continue cooking for another 5-6 minutes until they release their moisture and the liquid evaporates.
Reduce the heat to low and finely mince the garlic. Add the garlic to the pan, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes until it becomes fragrant but not browned.
Add the fresh lemon juice and zest to the pan, stirring to coat the mushrooms evenly.
Season the mushrooms with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Remove the skillet from heat.
Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the mushrooms. Toss gently to distribute.
Serve warm as a side dish, or use as a topping for toast, pasta, or salads.
