Sauteed Cremini Mushrooms (& Substitute Ideas!)

Step 1

Clean the mushrooms, then slice them. Chop the fresh thyme and oregano.

Step 2

In a saute pan or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often (the mushrooms will start to release their liquid at this point).

Step 3

Add the herbs and kosher salt and pepper and cook another 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is cooked out and the mushrooms are tender. (Taste to assess doneness.)

Step 4

Turn off the heat and add lemon juice and stir. Taste and add another pinch salt as necessary.
