How to Make Portabella Mushrooms With Barley

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large, nonstick frying pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the sliced portabella mushrooms and minced garlic to the pan. Cook until the mushrooms are tender and have released their moisture, about 8-10 minutes.
  4. Stir in the pearled barley, vegetable broth, thyme, and salt.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the barley is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes, allowing the barley to absorb any remaining liquid.
  8. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese (if using) and garnish with fresh parsley (if using).
  9. Serve warm and enjoy!
