Ingredients

• 300 grams shiitake mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Clean the shiitake mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth and trim off the tough stems. Slice the mushroom caps into thin strips.

Step 2

Mince the garlic cloves and set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and butter, letting the butter melt completely.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not browned.

Step 5

Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms to the skillet. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden and tender.

Step 6

Sprinkle in the fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for another minute to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Drizzle the lemon juice over the mushrooms and stir briefly to deglaze the pan and brighten the flavor.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the sautéed mushrooms with chopped fresh parsley.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a warm side dish or use as a flavorful topping for pasta, rice, or toast.
