Ingredients
- 500 grams mixed mushrooms (such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 240 milliliters chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth or paper towel. Trim the stems, and cut any large mushrooms in half to ensure even cooking.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
Step 4
Add the mushrooms to the skillet. Stir frequently and cook for 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms start to brown and release their moisture.
Step 5
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth. Add the fresh thyme, salt, and pepper.
Step 6
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and let it braise for 15-20 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid.
Step 7
Remove the lid, and stir in the fresh parsley and lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Step 8
Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
