Recipe: Mushrooms with Garlic

This recipe is easy.  It is so easy that it qualifies as "wicked easy."  And as a transplant to the New England area, I do not throw the "wicked" qualifier around lightly.  I had more mushrooms than I needed one Sunday - our Sunday open house was rained out, and I had more ingredients on hand than I knew what to do with.  This dish sprang to mind immediately.  It has five ingredients if you count a pinch of salt.  It cooks up quickly and fills the room with the scent of mushrooms and garlic. 

Mushrooms with Garlic (serves 2; approx. $1.47/serving)

10 ounces cremini mushrooms, wiped and sliced

6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 pinch Aleppo pepper (substitute cayenne if you haven't any)

1 pinch kosher salt or to taste

Equipment:

• Saute pan

1. Heat the oil in the saute pan over medium heat.
2. Add the garlic.  Saute until the slices are fragrant.  They might just begin to turn brown, but be very careful not to burn them.  That tastes bad.
3. Add the mushrooms and reduce heat to medium low.  Cook until the mushrooms are tender and have begun to yield some of their juices.
4. Add the salt and the aleppo pepper.  Cook another few seconds, to let the flavors marry, and then serve.
