Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 12 oz cremini mushrooms, stems trimmed
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tsp thyme leaves
- 1/3 cup dry white wine
- Garnish with coarsely chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
Directions
-
The secret to mushrooms that are beautifully browned and not watery is taking a hands-off approach. Stirring them as they caramelize releases the mushrooms’ liquid and causes them to steam, so leaving them alone is the way to go.
-
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook mushrooms, cap sides down, without stirring until caps are caramelized, 4 to 5 minutes.
-
Reduce heat to medium. Toss mushrooms, and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook until mushrooms are well browned, about 5 minutes more. Add garlic, butter, and thyme. Cook until garlic is golden and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Add wine, return skillet to heat, and cook until wine is evaporated, about 4 minutes.
-
Garnish with parsley, serve warm.
