Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 lb. white or brown mushrooms, quartered (about 5 cups)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Instruction

  • Melt butter in a large cast-iron skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat for 2 minutes until it starts to sizzle. Add quartered mushrooms and sauté for 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms start to shrink and lose moisture. Stir occasionally to cook evenly. You don't want to stir it too often.
  • Add Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Stir well to mix and continue to cook the mushrooms for 2-3 minutes until they turn golden brown (but not dark brown yet). Salt will further remove water inside the mushrooms.
  • Add soy sauce and garlic. Sauté for another 2-3 minutes. Soy sauce will enhance the caramelization process, which makes the mushrooms develop a characteristic rich brown colour by slowly breaking down its natural sugar.
  • Serve on a plate and garnish with parsley on top.
