Stir Fried Mushrooms

Very little olive oil is needed to get a nice color on these ‘shrooms.

Stir Fried Mushrooms
makes 1 large bowl

1 large onion, diced
1-2 TBSP olive oil
3-4 cups crimini mushrooms
1/4- 1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
fine sea salt, to taste

Heat olive oil in a wok, add onion.  Stir fry over moderate to high heat until golden brown.  Add mushrooms, salt and pepper.  Continue to cook until mushrooms take on a dark golden brown at the edges.  Lower heat, if needed.

Serve with grilled chicken, steak, or pork chops.

(For a nice weekend brunch, top a small mound of the mushroom mixture with a fried chicken, duck, or quail egg.)

Notice the touch of color beginning to appear at the bottom right corner?  High heat and low moisture create a rich, meaty flavor in your mushrooms.
