Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pound shiitake mushrooms sliced or whole
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter vegan as desired
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Optional splash of white wine*
- 2 large cloves garlic minced or pressed
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start by cleaning the mushrooms. Take a wet paper towel and gently wipe off any dirt from the mushrooms. Refrain from rinsing the mushrooms because they absorb water easily and when cooked they will turn out too chewy. Slice as desired.1 pound shiitake mushrooms
- In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the butter and olive oil. Once hot, add in the shiitake mushrooms. Let them sit on medium heat and do not touch them for about 3 minutes. This will create some nice caramelization around the edges of the mushrooms. Stir and cook for 2 more minutes.3 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon olive oil

Notes
*I usually do about 1 tablespoon, but you can simply leave it out. See notes above about enhancing the medicinal value of the mushrooms.
