Mushroom Preparation

Method

Mushroom Cooking Process

1

Clean the Mushrooms

Gently wipe the fresh mushrooms with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Avoid soaking them in water to prevent them from becoming mushy.

2

Slice the Mushrooms

Slice the cleaned mushrooms into even pieces, about 1/4 inch thick, to ensure even cooking.

3

Heat the Olive Oil

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering, about 1-2 minutes.

4

Sauté the Garlic

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

5

Cook the Mushrooms

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Stir occasionally and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and have released their moisture.

6

Season the Mushrooms

Sprinkle the chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper over the mushrooms. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

7

Add Lemon Juice

Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the cooked mushrooms. Toss to combine and enhance the flavor.

8

Serve

Transfer the sautéed mushrooms to a serving dish and enjoy warm as a side dish or topping for meats, pasta, or salads.
