Ingredients

• 450 grams button mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 medium shallot
• 2 garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons raspberry preserves
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Clean the button mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel or brushing off dirt. Slice the mushrooms into evenly sized pieces (quarter or halve them if the mushrooms are small).

Step 2

Peel and finely dice the shallot. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.

Step 4

Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and softened. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even cooking.

Step 5

Stir in the diced shallot and minced garlic and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until fragrant.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low. Add the balsamic vinegar, raspberry preserves, and thyme leaves. Stir well to coat the mushrooms and create a glossy glaze.

Step 7

Season with salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the mushrooms to a serving dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.

Step 9

Serve warm as a side dish, or use as a savory-sweet topping for grilled chicken, steak, or toasted bread.
