Ingredients
Scale
Fats and Oils
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (divided)
Vegetables and Herbs
- 1 pound mushrooms (sliced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
Liquids and Sauces
- 3 tablespoons white wine (or broth)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Seasonings
- salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Cook mushrooms: Heat 2 tablespoons oil and 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften and release their moisture, about 5 minutes.
- Add aromatics: Reduce the heat to medium. Stir in the minced garlic, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant and the herbs are well incorporated.
- Deglaze: Pour in the white wine (or broth) to deglaze the skillet. Cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and the liquid has mostly evaporated, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce thoroughly to add depth to the flavor.
- Finish: Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Sprinkle with the chopped fresh parsley. Stir continuously until the butter has melted and the mushrooms have a glossy, rich coating. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Using a combination of oil and butter helps prevent the butter from burning while providing rich flavor.
- White wine can be substituted with vegetable or chicken broth for a non-alcoholic version.
- For a vegan option, replace butter with olive oil and omit Worcestershire sauce or use vegan Worcestershire sauce.
- Make sure mushrooms are sliced evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
- Serve as a side dish, over steak, or mixed into pasta or risotto for extra flavor.
