Ingredients
- 1 pound baby bella mushrooms sliced
- 3 cloves garlic sliced
- 1/2 tsp chili flakes optional
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 2 Tbsp fresh parsley minced
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Saute garlic in a 1/4 cup olive over medium-low heat until golden (about 2 minutes). Remove garlic from the pan and set aside.
- Turn heat to medium-high and add mushrooms. Saute for 1-2 minutes then add a touch (1/4 tsp) of kosher salt. After the water releases from the mushrooms (about 3 minutes) continue to cook for 1-2 minutes or until the mushrooms are nice and brown.
- Season the mushrooms with remaining kosher salt, chili flakes if desired, and parsley. Turn off the heat and drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil on top. At this time, if desired, add back the cooked garlic. Enjoy!

Notes
- Buy mushrooms that are firm and fresh with no signs of wetness.
- Clean mushrooms with a slightly damp paper towel to knock off dirt and debris.
- Do not crowd the mushrooms in the pan. Saute the mushrooms in batches if necessary.
- Use high heat to encourage release and evaporation of the mushrooms' water. A touch of salt during the initial saute aids in water release.
- Discard or save the garlic after the initial saute (can be added back after the mushrooms are finished cooking), so as to not burn it during the high heat saute process.
- Use regular olive oil for sauteing (extra virgin olive oil will burn) and finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil with the heat off at the end.
