Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g mushrooms (button or cremini)
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 60 ml dry white wine
- 2 tbsp fresh dill
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 50 g feta cheese (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by brushing off any dirt with a damp paper towel. If the mushrooms are large, cut them into halves or quarters to ensure even cooking.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Chop the fresh dill and parsley and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, but not browned.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet. Stir to coat them in the garlic oil and let them cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture.
Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the lemon juice, white wine, oregano, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well and allow the liquid to simmer and reduce, about 5 minutes.
Once the mushrooms are tender and coated in a flavorful glaze, stir in the lemon zest, fresh dill, and parsley. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Transfer the mushrooms to a serving dish and garnish with crumbled feta cheese, if desired.
Serve warm or at room temperature as an appetizer, side dish, or as part of a Mediterranean mezze platter.
