Ingredients

Scale

For the Cowboy Mushrooms

  • 1 pound Baby Bella Mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
  • Black Pepper, freshly cracked, to taste
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the mushrooms: Gently wipe each baby bella mushroom with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the stems carefully without cutting them completely off to keep the mushrooms whole.
  2. Sauté garlic in butter: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat, coating the bottom evenly. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly until fragrant.
  3. Cook the mushrooms: Add the mushrooms to the skillet, spreading them in a single layer. Cook for 7 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally until they release moisture and turn golden brown.
  4. Add sauces and seasoning: Pour in 1 tablespoon each of Worcestershire sauce and soy sauce, stirring well to coat the mushrooms. Sprinkle with freshly cracked black pepper to taste.
  5. Simmer the sauce: Allow the mixture to simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally until slightly thickened.
  6. Finish with parsley and serve: Toss in the chopped fresh parsley just before serving for color and brightness. Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
  • Freeze for longer storage up to 3 months.
  • Reheat in a skillet with a splash of water or butter to restore tenderness.
  • This dish pairs well as a side with grilled meats, steaks, or as a savory addition to rice and vegetable bowls.
  • For a vegan version, substitute butter with plant-based margarine and use tamari instead of soy sauce.
