Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb baby bella mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Clean and Prep Mushrooms: Gently wipe the mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the stems if needed to ensure even cooking and a clean presentation.
  2. Sauté Garlic: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  3. Cook Mushrooms: Add the baby bella mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the mushrooms to release their moisture and develop a rich, browned exterior.
  4. Add Sauces and Pepper: Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and freshly cracked black pepper. Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes so the mushrooms can absorb the savory flavors.
  5. Finish with Parsley: Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the mushrooms. Toss gently and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use a large skillet to give mushrooms enough room to brown evenly without steaming.
  • Adjust the black pepper to your taste preference.
  • Worcestershire and soy sauces add umami and depth; substitute with tamari for gluten-free version.
  • Serve as a side dish, topping for steaks, or mixed into pasta for extra flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
