1
Clean the Mushrooms
Gently wipe the cultivated mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Avoid soaking them in water as they can absorb moisture and become soggy.
2
Slice the Mushrooms
After cleaning, slice the mushrooms into thick pieces, about 1/4 inch thick. This will help them retain their structure during cooking.
3
Heat the Olive Oil
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
4
Sauté the Garlic
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
5
Cook the Mushrooms
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Stir to coat them in the garlic and olive oil. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and tender.
6
Season the Mushrooms
Sprinkle the chopped fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper over the mushrooms. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
7
Add Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the sautéed mushrooms. Toss to combine and enhance the flavors.
8
Serve
Transfer the cultivated mushrooms to a serving dish and enjoy immediately as a side dish or topping for your favorite protein or grain.
