Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh spinach
- 250 grams button mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly and pat it dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Roughly chop the spinach if the leaves are large.
Clean the button mushrooms using a damp paper towel or brush to remove any dirt. Slice the mushrooms thinly.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Dice the yellow onion into small pieces.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and butter, allowing the butter to melt completely.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions become translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, ensuring it becomes fragrant but does not burn.
Increase the heat to medium-high and toss in the sliced mushrooms. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring often, until the mushrooms release their moisture and start to brown slightly.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the fresh spinach to the skillet. Stir frequently as the spinach wilts, cooking for about 3 minutes.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes, adjusting to taste. Stir well to combine.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the spinach and mushrooms, and give the dish a final stir. Remove from heat.
Serve the Homestyle Spinach Mushrooms warm as a side dish with grilled meats, roasted chicken, or crusty bread, or enjoy as a simple, flavorful vegetarian meal.
