Garlic Mushrooms
I love mushrooms! This garlic mushrooms recipe is one of my all-time favorites, a staple at our table that never fails to impress.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces shiitake mushrooms cleaned and halved
- 1 garlic peeled and minced, clove
- ¼ cup Italian parsley finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste, ground
- lemon
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushroom and cook for 5 minutes. Stir very occasionally to allow it to brown.
- Reduce the heat, add the garlic and parsley, stir, and cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer to a serving dish and squeeze fresh lemon juice before serving.
Notes
- Find mushrooms that are about the same size to ensure even cooking.
- We love shiitake, and we can find them all year round, but any bottom, Cremini, or wild mushrooms will work well, too. Choose your favorite.
- Do not overcrowd the pan so your mushrooms will caramelize better instead of simmering.
- Covering the mushrooms after adding the parsley and garlic will allow the release of the garlic oils into the mushrooms, adding a savory layer to your dish.
