The Technique
Sautéed Mushrooms & Onions
Sautéed Mushrooms & Onions are a quintessential classic accompaniment for a wide range of beef cuts including Parsley-Garlic London Broil, Rosemary-Garlic Ribeye Steaks, New York Strip Steaks & more. The key to achieving success depends upon high heat which allows the mushrooms to release much of the water for which they are mostly comprised. As far as equipment is concerned, a heavy sauté pan & a wooden spoon will do the trick. A variety of specimens may be used in this dish from the common white button to the brown crimini both of which fall under the agaricus bosporus fungi classification as immature mushrooms. A combination of wild mushrooms such as oyster, chanterelles & morels offer wonderful texture & taste, if desired, too. Learn how to make this steak house favorite in your very own kitchen.
Sautéed Mushrooms & Onions With Red Wine
makes 4 servings
2 Tbsp butter
1 sweet onion, sliced
1 {8-oz} package sliced button mushrooms
1/4 tsp kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup red wine
Melt the butter in a medium sauté pan over Medium-High heat. Add the onions & cook 2 minutes or until they begin to soften. Sprinkle with the salt & a smattering of pepper. Stir in the mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. The mushrooms will release a good bit of liquid & evaporate since the pan will be hot. Allow the vegetables to become golden brown during this portion of the procedure. Pour the red wine into the sauté pan scraping the browned bits from the bottom using a wooden spoon. Reduce the mixture until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Serve immediately.
