What's in this side dish?
- Mushrooms - 1 pound; I used white button mushrooms, but other varietals would work well in this recipe.
- Butter - 3 tablespoons
- Olive Oil - 1 tablespoon
- Fresh Garlic - 2 large or 3 small cloves, finely chopped
- Fresh Rosemary - 1 teaspoon, chopped
- Salt & Pepper - pinch of each, to taste
Ingredient Substitutions & Inclusions
- Butter Substitutes: Instead of butter, you can also use ghee or all olive oil.
- Mushrooms: As specified above, there are a variety of mushrooms that would work well with this dish including Shitake, Cremini, Portabella, and Oyster mushrooms.
- Herbs: The rosemary can be omitted or replaced with another herb such as thyme or parsley. If replacing the rosemary, keep in mind that some herbs are stronger than others in flavor. Meaning, you may need to adjust the quantity.
- Bacon: You can add bacon to this recipe. Omit the butter and olive oil. Cook the bacon in a nonstick skillet. Remove the bacon once cooked. In the same pan with the bacon fat, cook the mushrooms. Deglaze the pan with a small amount of white wine or vegetable stock.
