Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh or frozen peas
- 2 cups button mushrooms, sliced
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cups vegetable stock or water
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
If using frozen peas, bring a small pot of water to a boil and blanch the peas for 2-3 minutes, then drain and set aside. If using fresh peas, rinse them thoroughly and set aside.
Step 2
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened and translucent.
Step 4
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and begin to brown.
Step 6
Season the mushroom mixture with salt and black pepper.
Step 7
Pour in the vegetable stock or water, stirring to deglaze the pan, and cook for 1-2 minutes to reduce slightly.
Step 8
Add the peas to the skillet and toss gently to coat them in the buttery mushroom mixture. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the peas are tender and heated through.
Step 9
Sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley, and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Step 10
Serve immediately as a side dish with your favorite main course.
