Creamy Garlic Parmesan Sauteed Mushrooms
Description
Creamy Garlic Parmesan Sauteed Mushrooms begin by gently cleaning the mushrooms to avoid excess moisture. Cooking them over medium-high heat in butter achieves a nicely browned, concentrated flavor as excess moisture evaporates. Garlic, oregano, and chili flakes are added early to infuse the dish with aromatic and mildly spicy notes.
Once mushrooms are browned, cream, Parmesan cheese, and a touch of lemon juice are incorporated to form a thick, flavorful sauce. The cream adds richness while Parmesan provides a savory, nutty depth. Lemon juice balances the richness with brightness. The sauce thickens slightly with brief simmering.
Seasoned with salt and pepper and garnished with fresh parsley, this dish offers a creamy, garlicky side that complements meats, poultry, or pasta. The combination of textures — tender mushrooms in a smooth sauce — provides a rich but approachable flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 kg (2lbs) mushrooms
- 1 tbsp butter
- 4 garlic crushed, cloves
- oregano pinch
- chilli flakes pinch
- 1 cup cream
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- 2 tbsp parsley
- 1-2 tsp lemon juice
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a cloth.
- Mushrooms are like little sponges so washing them will mean they'll absorb a lot of water.
- Once the mushrooms are clean, melt the butter or add a splash of oil in a large pan set over medium-high heat.
- Add the mushrooms and allow to cook, stirring regularly, until golden brown. If a lot of liquid cooks out, allow to simmer until evaporated.
- Add the garlic , oregano and chilli and cook for a minute then pour in the cream, lemon juice and Parmesan.
- Cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Season with salt and pepper and add the parsley then serve.
