Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 300 grams mixed mushrooms (such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms)
• 2 units garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
• 2 tablespoons dry white wine (optional, or substitute with vegetable stock)
• 4 slices sourdough bread (or your preferred bread), thickly sliced
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Clean the mushrooms using a damp paper towel or a mushroom brush to remove dirt. Slice larger mushrooms into bite-sized pieces and leave smaller mushrooms whole for variety in texture.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.

Step 3

Add the mushrooms to the skillet in a single layer. Cook without stirring for about 3 minutes to allow them to caramelize and develop color.

Step 4

Stir the mushrooms and continue cooking for another 3–4 minutes until they release their juices and begin to brown.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and thyme to the mushrooms. Stir well and cook until the garlic becomes fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 6

Season the mushrooms with salt and black pepper. If using white wine or vegetable stock, deglaze the pan by adding it and stirring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Let the liquid cook off for 1–2 minutes.

Step 7

While the mushrooms are cooking, toast the bread slices until golden brown using a toaster or under the broiler. Optionally butter the toast for added richness.

Step 8

To serve, divide the cooked mushrooms evenly over the toasted bread slices. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy!
