Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb cremini mushrooms Halved
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 cloves garlic Minced
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce Low-sodium
  • 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper Freshly ground
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley Finely chopped

Equipment

  • Large cast iron skillet
  • Cutting board
  • Wooden spatula

Method
 

  1. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until slightly smoking.
  2. Add the avocado oil to the hot pan, followed by the halved mushrooms in a single layer.
  3. Sear undisturbed for 3 full minutes to develop a thick, brown crust on the bottom.
  4. Toss the mushrooms, reduce the heat to medium, and pour in the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
  5. Cook for 2 more minutes until the liquid reduces to a sticky glaze.
  6. Stir in the butter and minced garlic during the final minute of cooking, tossing until fragrant. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the mushrooms are completely dry before adding them to the hot oil to guarantee a proper sear instead of steaming.
