Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound button or cremini mushrooms
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 cup low-sodium vegetable or chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the stems, if necessary.
Mince the garlic cloves and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter (about 30 seconds in the microwave).
In a slow cooker, add the cleaned mushrooms, melted butter, ranch seasoning mix, minced garlic, and vegetable (or chicken) broth.
Stir gently to combine all ingredients. Make sure the mushrooms are evenly coated with the butter and seasoning.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 4 hours, or until the mushrooms are tender and infused with flavor.
Once cooked, stir the mushrooms again to coat them with the flavorful juices.
Transfer the mushrooms to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve warm as a standalone side dish, appetizer, or topping for steaks, burgers, or grilled chicken.
