Whether served hot alongside grilled meats, tossed into pasta, or enjoyed as a simple vegetarian side, these sautéed mushrooms are guaranteed to impress.
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel or rinsing quickly under running water and patting them dry. Slice the mushrooms into even pieces, about 1/4-inch thick.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and starts to bubble.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes to develop a golden-brown color on one side.
Stir the mushrooms and continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid released by the mushrooms evaporates.
Add the minced garlic and thyme to the skillet, and cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant.
Season the mushrooms with salt and black pepper, stirring to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Remove the skillet from heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Transfer the sauteed mushrooms to a serving dish and garnish with chopped parsley, if desired. Serve hot as a side dish.
