Ingredients

• 500 grams Button mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
• 100 milliliters Dry white wine
• 200 milliliters Chicken or vegetable broth
• 2 units Thyme sprigs
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Clean the mushrooms thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Trim the ends of the stems and cut larger mushrooms in half, leaving smaller ones whole.

Step 2

In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and begins to foam.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.

Step 4

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the mushrooms to the pan. Cook them for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Pour the white wine into the pan and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom. Allow the wine to reduce by half, which should take about 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Add the chicken or vegetable broth and thyme sprigs to the pan. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low.

Step 7

Cover the pan with a lid and let the mushrooms braise gently for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid.

Step 8

Remove the lid and discard the thyme sprigs. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes to allow any excess liquid to evaporate.

Step 9

Season the mushrooms with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
