Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs Cremini mushrooms cleaned and halved
  • 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp Fresh thyme chopped
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp Salt
  • 0.25 tsp Black pepper

Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Small Skillet

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). On a baking sheet, toss the mushrooms with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  2. Roast the mushrooms for 15-20 minutes, stirring them halfway through, until they are tender and lightly browned.
  3. While the mushrooms roast, melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat until it browns and smells nutty. Add the minced garlic and chopped thyme, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Remove the roasted mushrooms from the oven and drizzle them with the browned butter, garlic, and thyme mixture. Toss to combine and serve immediately.

Notes

Ensure not to overcrowd the baking sheet when roasting the mushrooms to achieve optimal browning and a tender texture. Stirring halfway through cooking also helps with even browning.
