LEMON HERB BUTTER MUSHROOMS

Lemon Herb Butter Mushrooms make a wonderful appetizer served with crusty, warm bread. They’re divine spooned over a perfectly cooked rib-eye steak or some grilled chicken thighs. Try serving them with roasted chicken or pork. And I can attest to them being wonderful stirred through hot pasta or a cheese risotto – last night’s dinner.

You could probably use any fresh herbs you like – parsley and basil for example. I’ve used thyme, rosemary and chives with garlic, lemon and mustard. The woodier herbs tend to pair so well with mushrooms.

LEMON HERB BUTTER MUSHROOMS

There’s a restaurant about 10 miles from us here in Indiana called Bonge’s Tavern. The menu is limited; the food exceptional. They have three appetizers, one of which is mushrooms cooked in butter and lemon. The mushrooms the chef cooks change with the seasons. It’s one of those could-eat-for-the-rest-of-my-life-and-not-tire-of dishes. I think this buttery herb sauce is pretty darn close to Bonge’s. I’m going to make this again in a pan with different mushrooms. So feel free to switch the mushrooms to suit availability and preference. Because really, it’s all about the butter sauce. Toodles, Lovoni xo

LEMON HERB BUTTER MUSHROOMS

Enjoy these buttery mushrooms on their own with some bread for sopping up the juices or serve as a side with a grilled steak, pork chop or chicken. They’re also excellent tossed through hot pasta with some freshly grated parmsesan or through a plain risotto.
