Ingredients
Scale
Mushrooms
- 1 lb baby bella mushrooms
Sauce & Seasonings
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper (adjust to taste)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Clean mushrooms: Wipe mushrooms clean gently using a damp paper towel to remove dirt. Trim the ends of the stems if they seem dry or tough.
- Melt butter: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt completely without browning.
- Sauté garlic: Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
- Cook mushrooms: Add the mushrooms to the skillet. Stir occasionally and cook for 7-9 minutes until the mushrooms are lightly browned and tender.
- Add sauces and pepper: Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and freshly cracked black pepper to the mushrooms, mixing well to evenly coat them.
- Simmer: Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to slightly thicken and coat the mushrooms.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the mushrooms, give a final stir, and serve the dish hot as a side or topping.
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, use tamari or gluten-free soy sauce.
- Adjust the black pepper to taste, or add chili flakes for some heat.
- Try adding a splash of dry white wine in step 6 for extra depth.
- Serve over toasted bread or alongside grilled meats for a complete meal.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
