Description

A rich and deep-flavored dish made with simple ingredients, perfect as a side, topping, or snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 ounces whole cremini mushrooms
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Parmesan cheese, for serving
  • Lemon zest, for serving
  • Chili flakes, for serving
  • Balsamic glaze, for drizzling
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the mushrooms: Gently wipe the mushrooms with a damp towel and trim the stems. Ensure they are very dry to facilitate caramelization.
  2. Brown the butter: Melt the butter over medium heat until it foams and small golden specks appear. Remove from heat when it smells warm and nutty.
  3. Season the mushrooms: Place mushrooms in a bowl. Add garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pour in half of the warm brown butter and toss well to coat each mushroom.
  4. Roast the mushrooms: Spread the mushrooms on a wide sheet pan with space between them and roast until they shrink slightly and develop a deep golden color.
  5. Finish and serve: Transfer the mushrooms to a serving dish. Pour the remaining brown butter on top and add fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

Mushrooms can be served with various mains or tossed with pasta. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
