Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Cremini or button mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 8 leaves Fresh sage leaves
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel or gently brushing off any dirt. Trim the ends of the stems and, if they are large, cut them in half or quarters.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and the olive oil to the pan, letting the butter melt completely.
Add the mushrooms in a single layer to the skillet and cook without stirring for 4–5 minutes, allowing them to brown on one side.
Stir the mushrooms and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden and tender.
Push the mushrooms to one side of the skillet and add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the empty space. Once melted, add the minced garlic and the fresh sage leaves, stirring them into the butter for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Mix the garlic, sage, and butter with the mushrooms, ensuring everything is evenly coated. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Turn off the heat and stir in the lemon juice for a bright, fresh finish.
Transfer the mushrooms to a serving dish and garnish with chopped parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.
