Mushrooms and Onions for Steak

"This is how I sauté mushrooms and onions to serve with grilled steak. I've been doing it this way for years and never really thought of it as a recipe until today when my husband mentioned that it was the best he'd ever had. If you have leftovers, make an omelet with them with smoked swiss cheese and serve with hot, steaming bowls of tomato soup with basil. Just trust me on that."

directions

  • Melt the butter and olive oil together in a frying pan and add the mushrooms and onions; let them cook slowly, over medium heat, until the mushrooms are getting a little brown and the onions are nice and soft, about 20 minutes.
  • While there's still some moisture left from the mushrooms, add the Worcestershire sauce and garlic salt.
  • The mixture will thicken and it's ready to serve.
  • Serve with grilled steak and use leftovers for omelets.
  • Makes 4 servings if served with steak.

  1. Delicious topping for burgers, too! I only used 1/2 tsp. each of worcestershire, kosher salt and black pepper, and two cloves of garlic, minced, instead of the garlic salt.
     
  2. This is a pretty good base recipe made from things you already have on hand. I made it exactly as directed the first time and they were good. DH made some simple suggestions the second time that put these over the top! I just added 2 cloves of minced garlic, a teaspoon of Kosher salt and a teaspoon of black pepper. I cooked the onions for about 7 minutes before I added the mushrooms and that helped them caramelize more. They were perfect!
     
  3. This was a very good recipe. I've made it before and really liked it, but this time I added about 1T Balsamic Vinegar when I added the worcestershire sauce. That addition put it right over the top! Thanks so much for posting, Hey Jude!
     
  4. This was tasty, but I would recommend starting to cook the onions before adding the mushrooms as they take much longer to carmelize. The worchestershire adds a nice flavor. I will make this again. I had very few leftover, but I'd bet they would taste great on a grilled cheese sandwich. Maybe lunch tomorrow.
     
  5. Such a simple recipe but packed with so much flavor. It really takes steaks to the next level! Can't wait to make again!

Tweaks

  1. I used Teriyaki instead of Worcestershire to go with my marinated chicken.
     
  2. I didn't have any butter, but Country Crock worked just as well.
     
  3. I added fresh pouring cream to it making it more like a sauce.
     
  4. Loved it. added minced garlic instead of garlic salt. Thanks Jude!
     
  5. Absolutely delicious! The only change I made was substituting soy sauce for worchestershire as I didn't have any. Will definitely make it again and again.
