1
Clean the Mushrooms
Gently clean the maitake mushrooms with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Avoid rinsing them under water as they can absorb moisture.
2
Prepare the Garlic
Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.
3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
4
Sauté the Mushrooms
Add the maitake mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are golden brown and tender.
5
Add Garlic and Thyme
Stir in the chopped garlic and fresh thyme. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.
6
Season
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the mushrooms. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.
7
Finish with Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle lemon juice over the sautéed mushrooms. Toss gently to combine.
8
Serve
Transfer the sautéed maitake mushrooms to a serving platter and enjoy warm as a side dish or topping for your favorite protein.
