Sauteed Chanterelle Mushrooms Recipe
Sauteed Chanterelle Mushrooms showcase these delicate, wild mushrooms cooked simply with butter, onions, and thyme to highlight their earthy flavor and tender texture. The mushrooms are cleaned and cut if large before sautéing with sliced onions, seasoning, and fresh herbs. Cooking over medium to high heat reduces excess liquid and develops a golden, savory finish. This method brings out the chanterelles’ unique flavor and can be served warm as a side dish.
Ingredients
- 16 ounces chanterelle mushroom fresh
- 1-2 Tablespoons butter
- 1 medium onion sliced
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste, ground
- 2 Teaspoon thyme
- parsley fresh to garnish, fresh
Instructions
- Prepare your chanterelle mushrooms. Clean mushrooms to cut off spoiled parts. Rinse if they are dirty, if they are not too dirty just use a brush to brush off dirt. Pat dry wet mushrooms to take in excess waters.
- Cut your mushrooms into two or fours if they are large, or else leave whole.
- Heat up a skillet with the butter and saute sliced onion until soft.
- Add mushrooms to your pan and keep over a high to medium heat setting.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Add thyme and combine.
- Stir occasionally while the mushrooms are reducing. The mushrooms will lose a lot of liquids and that's ok.
- Cook until mushrooms are done over medium to high heat and until you are satisfied with the result.
- Serve still warm as a side dish.
Notes
- Thorough cleaning of chanterelle mushrooms may require extra prep time, especially when mushrooms are small and muddy.
