Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 500 grams white or cremini mushrooms
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 1 large yellow bell pepper
• 1 large green bell pepper
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Trim the stems if needed and slice them into thick pieces.

Step 2

Deseed the bell peppers and cut them into thin strips (julienne).

Step 3

Finely mince the garlic cloves and chop the parsley.

Step 4

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and begin to brown.

Step 7

Toss in the bell peppers and stir well. Continue to cook for 5-7 minutes, until the peppers are slightly softened but still have a bit of crunch.

Step 8

Sprinkle the mixture with paprika, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Step 9

Drizzle the lemon juice over the vegetables and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Step 10

Remove from heat and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Step 11

Serve warm as a side dish, or pair with crusty bread or rice for a light main course.
