Garlic Mushrooms
Garlic mushrooms are warm and comforting, featuring golden-brown cremini mushrooms sautéed in butter and olive oil, finished with fresh garlic, thyme, lemon juice, and parsley. Perfect as a side dish, appetizer, or vegetarian main, and deeply flavorful without being complicated.
Ingredients
- 16 ounces cremini mushrooms
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Clean the mushrooms by wiping with a damp paper towel or quickly rinsing and patting dry. Trim stems and slice large mushrooms in half. Small mushrooms can be left whole.
- Heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once melted and shimmering, add the mushrooms in a single layer. Sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes until golden brown on one side.
- Stir the mushrooms and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender.
- Lower the heat to medium. Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the minced garlic. Cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant and lightly golden.
- Stir in the salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and lemon juice. Cook for another minute to combine flavors.
- Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Serve warm.
