Pan-Cooked Sauteed Mushrooms
Ingredients
- 1 pound any fresh mushrooms
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup dry white wine or water
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
Directions
- Rinse the mushrooms and trim.
- Set them round side up and cut downward into slices.
- Put the oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- When hot, add the mushrooms and sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their liquid, become tender, and the pan is beginning to dry out again, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Pour in 1/2 cup wine.
- For moist mushrooms without any sauce, stir in 1/4 cup.
- Let the liquid bubble and evaporate for 1 minute, stirring the bottom of the pan to scrape up any browned bits, then turn the heat down to low.
- When the mushrooms are done, stir in the garlic and parsley and cook for just 1 minute more.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt or pepper and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
