Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices baguette or artisan bread
- 4 ounces Brie cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Clean and slice the cremini mushrooms thinly. Mince the garlic cloves.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and begin to brown.
Stir in the minced garlic, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside.
Preheat your broiler on high. Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet.
Slice the Brie cheese into thin slices and evenly distribute them over the bread slices.
Top each bread slice with the sautéed mushroom mixture, dividing it evenly among the four slices.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the Brie has melted and the edges of the bread are golden brown. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
Remove the Mushroom and Brie Melts from the oven and transfer to plates. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your savory, cheesy melt!
