Description

Sautéed mushrooms are a simple and flavorful side dish that pairs well with any meal. This recipe uses cremini or white button mushrooms cooked with garlic, thyme, and parsley for a delicious earthy flavor.


Ingredients

Mushrooms:

1 pound cremini or white button mushrooms, cleaned and sliced

Oil and Butter:

2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Seasonings:

2 cloves garlic, minced, 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon dried thyme, salt and black pepper to taste, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)


Instructions

  1. Heat Skillet: Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Cook Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 4–5 minutes to allow them to brown. Stir and continue cooking for another 5–7 minutes until tender and golden.
  3. Add Flavor: Add garlic and thyme, sauté for an additional 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Finish and Serve: Remove from heat, sprinkle with parsley if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure mushrooms brown properly.
  • You can use a mix of mushroom varieties for deeper flavor.
