Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Mushrooms (button or cremini, cleaned and sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel or brushing off any dirt. Avoid soaking them in water, as mushrooms absorb moisture.
Slice the mushrooms into even pieces, about 1/4-inch thick.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter together over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and starts to bubble.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet in a single layer if possible. Let them cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes to allow a golden crust to form.
Stir the mushrooms and cook for another 2-3 minutes until they are evenly browned, reducing the heat to medium if needed.
Add the minced garlic, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until the garlic is fragrant and the mushrooms are tender.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt or pepper if required.
Transfer the sauteed mushrooms to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.
