How to Make Champignons A La Monegasque

  1. Trim the stems of 1 pound of cremini mushrooms. Leave small mushrooms whole; cut larger ones in half or quarters.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook gently, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
  3. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste. Add 4 anchovy fillets (soaked in fresh water for 2 hours if salted), 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, and the juice of 1/2 lemon.
  4. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated (about 5-7 minutes).
  5. Remove from heat and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately for best results.
