Ingredients

  

• 500 g fresh mushrooms button, cremini, or your favorite variety, cleaned and sliced
• 3 tbsp olive oil or butter
• 3 garlic cloves minced
• 1 tsp dried thyme or 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped (optional)

Instructions

 

• Prepare the mushrooms: Clean and slice mushrooms if not pre-sliced. Pat them dry to remove excess moisture.
• Heat the pan: Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil or butter and allow it to heat until shimmering or melted.
• Cook the mushrooms: Add mushrooms to the pan in a single layer. Let them cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes until golden brown on one side.
• Stir in garlic and herbs: Flip the mushrooms and stir in the minced garlic and thyme. Cook for another 3-5 minutes until fragrant and mushrooms are tender.
• Season and serve: Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Serve immediately as a side dish or topping for toast, steak, or pasta.

Notes

• Avoid washing mushrooms under running water; use a damp paper towel to clean them.
• For a vegan twist, use olive oil instead of butter.
