Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 1 medium yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium green bell pepper
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 8 ounces white mushrooms
• 3 cloves garlic
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and prepare the vegetables: Slice the red, yellow, and green bell peppers into thin strips. Halve and thinly slice the yellow onion. Clean the mushrooms and slice them into 1/4-inch thick pieces. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let it warm up for about 1 minute.

Step 3

Add the sliced onions to the skillet and sauté for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

Step 4

Add the bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peppers begin to soften and develop some charred edges.

Step 5

Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their liquid and begin to brown.

Step 6

Lower the heat to medium and stir in the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until the garlic becomes fragrant.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary. Remove the skillet from heat.

Step 8

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm as a side dish, or use as a topping for steak, chicken, pasta, or rice.
