Sautéed Mushrooms With Garlic and Lemon Juice

littleturtle's Note:

Simple and super yummy. Makes a wonderful side dish for just about anything, but especially nice with steak. A little different (and more interesting) than the standard way of sautéing mushrooms in just butter and garlic.

• Total Time: 25 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 3

• 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce

If it were possible, I would definitely give it more. I don't even have a photo for it, because it was eaten right out of the skillet! I added shrimp after I added the juice mixture. Wonderful! Thnx so much for posting your recipe, littleturtle! Made for Comfort Cafe Summer 2009.

YUM! I love sauteed mushrooms, and you're right. This IS an even better way than just butter. I didn't have garlic paste, so I made my own using 3 cloves of garlic and some salt, and mushed it all together until it was a paste. Easy, yummy! After I tried some alone, I put these on a grilled chicken sandwich with mild Rotel tomatoes and pepper jack cheese. A delicious lunch, thanks.
