Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices whole grain bread
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup low sodium vegetable broth
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
Clean and slice the cremini mushrooms into thin slices.
Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant.
Add the unsalted butter to the skillet, allowing it to melt completely.
Pour in the low sodium vegetable broth, stirring to combine the ingredients. Let it simmer until the liquid reduces by half, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the heavy cream and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the cream thickens slightly.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and stir it into the mushroom mixture along with the lemon juice. Mix well to combine.
Toast the whole grain bread slices until they are golden brown.
Spoon the creamy garlic mushroom mixture generously over the toasted bread slices.
Serve immediately while hot, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired.
