Ingredients
Instructions
Prep the Mushrooms
Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Avoid washing them under running water as they can absorb too much liquid. Trim the very end of the stems and quarter the mushrooms.
Sauté the Aromatics
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or clay cazuela over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and the optional cayenne pepper, cooking for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and just beginning to turn golden. Be careful not to burn it.
Cook the Mushrooms
Increase the heat to medium-high, add the quartered mushrooms to the pan, and spread them in a single layer. Let them cook without stirring for about 5 minutes, allowing them to sear and caramelize. Then, continue to cook for another 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they have released their moisture and are nicely browned.
Deglaze and Finish
Pour in the dry white wine and let it bubble and reduce for 2-3 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Serve
Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately in the pan or in a warm dish with plenty of crusty bread to soak up the delicious garlic-infused oil.
