Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Button mushrooms (or cremini mushrooms)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Trim the stems and, if the mushrooms are large, slice them into halves or quarters to ensure even cooking.
Heat the olive oil and butter together in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and begins to bubble.
Add the prepared mushrooms to the skillet, spreading them into a single layer. Cook for about 5 minutes without stirring to allow them to brown properly.
Stir the mushrooms and continue to sauté for an additional 5-7 minutes until they are tender and golden brown.
Reduce the heat to low and add the minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the garlic becomes fragrant. Avoid browning the garlic to prevent bitterness.
Season the mushrooms with salt and black pepper, then drizzle with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Stir well to combine and heat for 1 more minute.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the mushrooms.
Serve immediately as a side dish or use as a topping for steak, chicken, or pasta.
