Ingredients
  

Roasted Mushrooms
  • 1.5 lb Cremini mushrooms cleaned and halved
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp Kosher salt
Browned Butter Sauce
  • 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp Fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tbsp Fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tsp Lemon juice freshly squeezed

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the halved mushrooms with olive oil and salt until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the mushrooms in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and tender.
  4. While the mushrooms roast, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter turns a deep golden brown and smells nutty.
  5. Add the minced garlic and fresh thyme to the browned butter, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant, then remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice.
  6. Transfer the roasted mushrooms to a serving bowl, pour the browned butter sauce over them, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For a deeper flavor, use a mix of wild mushrooms like shiitake or oyster alongside the cremini. Ensure the mushrooms are dry before roasting to achieve a better sear.
