Sauteed Chanterelles

I saw some beautiful chanterelle mushrooms at the farmer's market this weekend and I used this tasty recipe to cook them. This recipe serves 2 people as a side dish.

• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 2

Ingredients

• 2  cups  chanterelle mushrooms
• 1  tablespoon butter
• 2  garlic cloves, minced
• 1  tablespoon  chopped shallot
•  lemon wedge
• 1  teaspoon  chopped fresh basil
•  salt
•  black pepper

Directions

1. Cut mushrooms into chunks. Try to keep all the pieces about the same size.
2. Saute the garlic and shallots in butter over medium heat until the onions start to turn translucent.
3. Add the mushrooms to the pan. Stir every few minutes. (Lots of water in the bottom of the pan is normal.).
4. After about 10 minutes (or when your mushroom chunks are a couple minutes from doneness,) drain the juice from the bottom of the pan.
5. Add the basil and the lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste and cook the mushrooms until they're soft but not mushy.
6. Enjoy!
