Ingredients

• 500 grams Button mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Clean the button mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth or lightly rinsing them and patting them dry with a paper towel. Trim the stems if needed.

Step 2

Slice the button mushrooms into thick slices, about 1/4 inch each.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the butter and olive oil. Swirl the pan to combine the melted butter with the oil.

Step 4

Once the butter begins to foam, add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet in an even layer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and tender.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir constantly to avoid burning the garlic.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to medium and pour in the heavy cream. Stir well to coat the mushrooms with the cream.

Step 7

Add the lemon zest and fresh lemon juice to the skillet. Stir to combine, allowing the sauce to simmer gently for 2-3 minutes. The sauce should thicken slightly.

Step 8

Season the dish with salt and ground black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle chopped parsley over the top for a fresh finish.

Step 10

Serve the sauteed mushrooms with lemon cream sauce hot as a side dish or spooned over rice, pasta, or crusty bread.
