Ingredients for Aromatic Stewed Mushrooms

  • Fresh Mushrooms
  • Olive Oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Fresh Parsley

How to Make Aromatic Stewed Mushrooms

  1. Slice 1 pound of portobello mushrooms fairly thickly (about 1/2 inch thick).
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
  3. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes, until fragrant.
  4. Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and release their juices.
  5. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir in 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley.
  6. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to brown slightly and the flavors to meld. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
