Ingredients

• 500 grams Button mushrooms or cremini mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 1 cup Tomato salsa (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
• 4 pieces Lime wedges (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Clean the mushrooms by wiping them gently with a damp paper towel. Trim the stems and slice the mushrooms into thick slices.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and chopped onion to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.

Step 4

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms release their moisture and start to brown.

Step 5

Stir in the tomato salsa, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the mushrooms evenly in the salsa.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh cilantro, if desired.

Step 8

Serve warm as a side dish, taco filling, or over toast. Garnish with lime wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
