Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Button mushrooms (or cremini mushrooms)
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice (optional)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Slice larger mushrooms in half, leaving smaller ones whole.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter. Allow the butter to melt completely.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 4–5 minutes to get a nice golden brown color on one side.
Stir the mushrooms and cook for another 4–5 minutes, until they are evenly browned and tender.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Reduce the heat to low and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Stir well until the butter is fully melted and coats the mushrooms.
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, stirring to combine. Remove the skillet from the heat.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the mushrooms and, if desired, add a splash of lemon juice for a hint of brightness.
Serve the garlic butter mushrooms immediately as a side dish, appetizer, or topping for steak, pasta, or rice.
