Garlic Mushrooms

A lot of my recipe choices begin with, "I have _______ in the fridge left over from another recipe and need to use it before it goes bad."

This is how I landed on these garlic mushrooms.

The mushrooms were saved from ruin.


Ingredients:

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 an onion chopped (optional) - I used it.
1 pound of mushrooms
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
4 cloves garlic minced
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Heat the butter and oil in a large pan or skillet over medium-high heat.

Sauté the onion until softened (about 3 minutes).

Add the mushrooms and cook for about 4-5 minutes until golden and crispy on the edges.

Stir through thyme, 1 tablespoon of parsley and garlic. Cook for a further 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Season generously with salt and pepper (to your taste).

Sprinkle with remaining parsley and serve warm.
