Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Button mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by brushing off any dirt with a damp paper towel. Trim the stems if necessary, and slice the mushrooms into thick pieces.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and chop the parsley leaves. Set them aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant but not browned.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their water and begin to brown.
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and optional red chili flakes over the mushrooms. Stir to coat evenly.
Add the fresh thyme leaves to the skillet and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Turn off the heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the mushrooms. Stir well.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm. Enjoy as a side dish, an appetizer, or a topping for toast or pasta.
