Description
Cowboy Mushrooms are a delightful way to experience the rich, earthy flavors of mushrooms combined with a zesty herb-infused butter that will have your taste buds singing.
Ingredients
Scale
- 24 ounces white button mushrooms (cleaned and trimmed)
- 1 cup Cowboy Butter (made with herbs, spices, cayenne pepper, and red pepper flakes)
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Cowboy Butter to the skillet and let it melt gradually. Be cautious not to burn the butter; keep an eye on it as it liquefies and begins to bubble, releasing its aromatic fragrance into the air.
- Once the Cowboy Butter is melted and bubbling, it’s time to add the cleaned white button mushrooms. Stir them gently with a wooden spoon, ensuring each mushroom is evenly coated with the buttery mixture. This is crucial as the butter not only flavors the mushrooms but also helps them cook uniformly.
- Continue to cook the mushrooms for about 20–22 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep them from sticking to the skillet. You’ll notice the mushrooms turning a beautiful golden brown, and they’ll become tender as they release their natural moisture and absorb the flavors of the herb-infused butter. When they are done, season with a pinch of salt to taste, enhancing the overall flavor.
Notes
Ensure your skillet is large enough to prevent overcrowding the mushrooms; it allows them to caramelize beautifully without steaming.
