Equipment
- Pan
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh mushrooms
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- Freshly cracked pepper and salt to taste
Instructions
- Clean mushrooms and cut with a knife into similarly shaped thick pieces, if desired. Do not cut the mushrooms thin.
- Add butter and olive oil to a pan. Heat over medium-high heat. Once butter is melted and the mixture is hot, add mushrooms in small batches allowing room between mushrooms. Avoid crowding the pan.
- Allow mushrooms to cook, without stirring for 3-5 minutes. Stir only occasionally allowing mushrooms to finish cooking completely for another few minutes.
- Add salt and pepper to taste. Cook time varies depending on the size of the mushroom.
- If the mushrooms give off a lot of liquid, keep cooking until the liquid has evaporated and the mushrooms are browned on both sides.
- Serve warm over steak, in pasta, or as a side.
