This beautiful fresh golden chanterelles mushrooms recipe is nutty, earthy, chewy and very easy to cook.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large shallot, fine dice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lb chanterelle mushrooms, quartered, rough ends removed
  • 1 Tbsp butter
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • pinch pepper

Instructions

  • Bring a large pan to medium high heat and add olive oil.  When hot, add shallots.  Cook for ~ 4 minutes or until translucent.  Turn down the heat if the onions start to brown.
  • Add garlic to the onions and cook 1-2 minutes or until fragrant and set the onion/garlic mixture aside on a plate.  Add a little more olive oil if the pan is dry.
  • Wipe the pan (careful it's hot!) and add chanterelle mushrooms and a touch of salt.  Try not to disturb or stir them too much. 
  • Cook ~ 4 minutes.  Add a little olive oil partially through if they look dry. 
  • Finish the chanterelles off with butter and cook ~ 2 minutes.  Turn down the heat if the pan is smoking too much.
  • Add cooked onions and garlic and stir.  Add salt and pepper to taste.  Happy Eating!  Beckie

Notes

Don't want to cut up the shallot or garlic?  Cool, leave 'em out of this recipe and just cook the chanterelles with the olive oil and butter.
