Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 g Button or cremini mushrooms
- 3 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them gently with a damp paper towel. If the mushrooms are large, cut them into halves or quarters for even cooking.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and olive oil, and allow the butter to melt completely.
Once the butter is melted and begins to bubble slightly, add the mushrooms to the pan in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding to ensure proper browning.
Cook the mushrooms undisturbed for 4–5 minutes, allowing them to develop a golden crust on one side.
Stir the mushrooms and continue cooking for another 4–5 minutes until they are evenly browned and softened.
Add the minced garlic, fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes, until the garlic is fragrant but not burnt.
Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Remove from heat.
Optional: Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness before serving.
Serve immediately as a side dish, or use as a topping for steak, pasta, or toasted bread.
