Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 pound white button mushrooms, cleaned and thickly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
- Fresh parsley or chives, chopped, for garnish
Fats & Oils
- 4 tablespoons butter (preferably unsalted)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Condiments & Sauces
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Herbs & Spices
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried tarragon
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder (optional, for mild heat)
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Sauté Mushrooms: Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt. Allow them to sauté for about 3 minutes without stirring to achieve a golden sear.
- Add Garlic and Spices: Stir the mushrooms then add the minced garlic, dried oregano, dried tarragon, paprika, black pepper, and chili powder if using. Cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.
- Incorporate Sauces: Pour in Worcestershire sauce and soy sauce, stirring well to coat the mushrooms evenly. Continue cooking for another 2 to 3 minutes so the mushrooms absorb the flavors.
- Finish with Butter: Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Stir until the butter melts and coats the mushrooms, creating a glossy, rich finish.
- Garnish and Serve: Taste and adjust salt if necessary. Transfer the mushrooms to a serving dish and garnish with chopped fresh parsley or chives before serving.
Notes
- For best flavor, use fresh, firm white button mushrooms.
- Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure proper searing and browning of mushrooms.
- Chili powder is optional but adds a mild heat that pairs well with the garlicky richness.
- This dish pairs beautifully with grilled steaks, roasted chicken, or can be served as a standalone appetizer.
- Use unsalted butter to better control the seasoning and salt levels.
