Course: Side Dish
Cuisine: Italian
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 pound portobello mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons parsley minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Remove portobello gills (optional), clean, and slice into 1/4"strips.
  • Heat a pan to medium-high heat and let it get hot. Coat the bottom of pan with 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil and saute mushrooms. Do not crowd mushrooms. Work in batches if necessary.
  • After the mushrooms release their water (5-10 minutes), continue cooking until the mushrooms turn golden brown.
  • Turn heat to medium and add the butter. Cook for 1 minute, then add the balsamic vinegar. Sautee for 1-2 minutes more or until the mushrooms absorb the balsamic vinegar.
  • Turn off heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top and serve. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Buy fresh firm mushrooms that are nice and dry.  
  • Removing the gills is optional.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan.  If necessary, saute in multiple batches.
  • Thyme is also a great herb to pair with mushrooms - give it a try instead of the parsley if you are so inclined!
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and microwaved to reheat.
