Ingredients

1 lb (450g) fresh cremini or button mushrooms, cleaned and stems trimmed

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or ½ teaspoon dried thyme)

1 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped (plus extra for garnish)

1 tablespoon soy sauce

½ teaspoon black pepper

¼ teaspoon sea salt (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (optional for depth of flavor)

Instructions

Prepare the Mushrooms: In a large skillet, over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter. Once the butter is sizzling, add the mushrooms. Make sure they lay in a single layer for even cooking. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and tender, stirring occasionally.

Add Garlic and Herbs: Once the mushrooms are nicely browned, push them to the side of the skillet. In the empty space, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and let it melt. Then, add the minced garlic and thyme into the melted butter. Sauté for about 1 minute or until fragrant, stirring to ensure the garlic doesn’t burn.

Combine Flavors: Stir everything together in the skillet. Add the soy sauce, black pepper, and sea salt. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. If using, stir in the balsamic vinegar for an extra hint of richness.

Finish and Serve: Stir in the chopped parsley right before taking the skillet off the heat. Transfer the mushrooms to a serving platter, garnish with additional parsley, and serve hot alongside your favorite steak or as a delicious appetizer.
