Garlic and parsley roasted mushrooms with lemon butter is a simple yet flavorful dish perfect for mushroom lovers. This recipe combines the earthy taste of mushrooms with the freshness of parsley and the zing of lemon juice, all smothered in rich, salted butter. It’s a great side dish or a tasty appetizer that’s easy to prepare and sure to please.
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping with a damp cloth. Ensure any dirt is removed, and trim the stems if necessary. Finely chop the fresh parsley and mince the garlic cloves.
In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, melt the 3 tablespoons of salted butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and stir to combine.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cleaned mushrooms, chopped parsley, and the garlic butter mixture. Pour in the 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Toss all ingredients until the mushrooms are evenly coated.
Spread the mushroom mixture evenly on a baking sheet, ensuring the mushrooms are in a single layer for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are golden brown and tender. Stir halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting and to re-coat the mushrooms with the garlic butter mixture.
Once roasted, remove the mushrooms from the oven. Transfer them to a serving dish, and if desired, garnish with a little extra chopped parsley and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for additional brightness.
Serve the garlic and parsley roasted mushrooms hot as a side dish or appetizer. They pair wonderfully with grilled meats, pasta, or can be enjoyed on their own.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm mushrooms for the best texture and flavor.
- Make sure the garlic is finely minced to evenly distribute its flavor.
- Chop the parsley right before using to preserve its freshness and vibrant color.
- For a slightly different twist, consider adding a splash of white wine before roasting.
- Roast the mushrooms at a high temperature to achieve a nice caramelization.
- Toss the mushrooms halfway through roasting to ensure even cooking.
- Serve immediately for the best taste and texture, as mushrooms can become soggy if they sit for too long.
In just a few straightforward steps, you can create a delicious and aromatic dish that showcases the wonderful flavors of mushrooms, garlic, and fresh parsley. The addition of lemon butter elevates this dish into something special, making it a perfect complement for a variety of meals or as a delightful standalone treat.
