Cowboy Mushrooms are a savory and hearty side dish featuring baby bella mushrooms sautéed in butter and garlic, then glazed with Worcestershire and soy sauces for a rich, umami-packed flavor. Finished with fresh parsley, this recipe is perfect for adding a rustic touch to any meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 lb baby bella mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Prepare Mushrooms: Wipe mushrooms clean using a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the stems if they appear dry or tough to ensure even cooking.
  2. Melt Butter and Sauté Garlic: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, stirring continuously until fragrant but not browned to avoid bitterness.
  3. Cook Mushrooms: Add the cleaned mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 7 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally. Allow them to brown well and become tender, which enhances their flavor.
  4. Add Sauces and Pepper: Stir in Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and freshly cracked black pepper, ensuring the mushrooms are evenly coated with the savory mixture.
  5. Simmer to Thicken: Lower the heat slightly and simmer the mushrooms for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. This allows the sauce to thicken slightly and cling to the mushrooms.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the mushrooms for a burst of freshness, and serve hot as a delicious side dish.

Notes

  • Baby bella mushrooms can be substituted with cremini or white button mushrooms if preferred.
  • Adjust the amount of black pepper to your taste for desired spiciness.
  • For a vegan version, replace butter with olive oil and ensure Worcestershire sauce is vegan-friendly.
  • Serve alongside grilled meats or as a topping for steaks and burgers for a hearty complement.
  • Do not overcrowd the mushrooms in the skillet to ensure proper browning; cook in batches if needed.
