One of my favorite side dishes is sauteed mushrooms. They are delicious on a hamburger or on top of pasta. They also play well on top of various meats, tofu, salads, and more. You can’t go wrong with a sautéed mushroom!

When Rachael Ray reached out to offer me a few pans, I was thrilled! Normally when I sauté mushrooms, I use a frying pan, so when I saw she had a ceramic, non-stick sauté pan, I knew I needed it in my life. I was so right! This sauté pan is everyone’s dream. The ceramic, non-stick surface is non-toxic and the food slips and slides around without sticking. It makes cooking so easy! I also love how easy it is to clean up. There wasn’t any scrubbing involved. Love that!

So, I highly recommend investing in this sauté pan by Rachael Ray, you will love it! I am reaching for it almost daily now! Love!

Anyway, back to the recipe! I took these photos when my husband barbequed hamburgers. As I mentioned earlier, I love putting sauteed mushroom on top of my hamburger. Yum!

What you’ll need to make my sauteed mushrooms:

• Saute Pan
• Wooden Spoon
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms (double this for more than 4 people)
• Paprika
• Olive Oil
• Black Pepper
• Diced Garlic (two cloves)

Now the easy part! Warm up your sauté pan and pour in about 1/4 cup olive oil. Add the mushrooms and coat them in the olive oil by mixing with a wooden spoon. Then, add paprika, black pepper and diced garlic; season to taste. Mix again using the wooden spoon.

Once the mushrooms are coated in the olive oil, paprika, black pepper, and garlic, let them simmer on medium for five minutes with the lid in place on your sauté pan. After five minutes, stir and re-cover. Let it simmer for another three minutes and stir again. Keep checking every couple of minutes until the mushrooms shrink and turn a pretty “mushroom” color. Once they shrink and turn darker, they should be ready to serve!

For my burger shown below, I had provolone cheese topped with French’s onions and my sauteed mushrooms. On the bun I used pesto aioli sauce by Terrapin Ridge Farms. If you are local, you can find this yummy aioli at Lunardi’s. In the mini bowl I have ranch dressing for my French Fries; which aren’t pictured.

If you love mushrooms like me, I hope you enjoy this really easy sauteed mushrooms recipe. They are so easy to make, especially with this amazing sauté pan!

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy some sautéed mushrooms!
