Garlic-Rosemary Mushrooms

These simple sautéed mushrooms work as a quick, weeknight side dish. To turn them into a main course, toss with cooked pasta and a generous handful of Parmesan cheese or fold into an omelet with Gruyère, fontina or Swiss cheese.

This recipe was fabulous! I omitted the bacon because I didn't have any and thought it would be just fine without. So, I used a dash of olive oil and a bit of black truffle olive oil to sub for the grease from the bacon. We served over angel hair so I didn't let all the liquid evaporate. Super easy and YUMMM!

I've made this several times with Chanterelles (we go mushroom hunting) I put them on top of bone-in chicken breast(organic) that I previously dusted with seasoned flour and cooked in the pan. Then I put the chicken in the toaster oven to stay warm while cook the mushrooms in the same pan (then you get all the brown bits from the chicken). I also use turkey bacon, the recipe is delicious. I usually serve with fresh pan sauteed green beans.If you think the mushrooms get too dry add a little chicken broth. I like the addition of the flour from the chicken because it makes it more thick and saucy. Cara, Bellingham, WA	8 weeks 5 days ago
I've used this before, only adding red, yellow peppers, and fresh green and red onions. This makes a great lite dinner served over pasta- not much more calories or fat, maybe a tsp. of Zesty Italian dressing- wonderful dish! Anonymous, Summerville, SC	8 weeks 5 days ago

Forget the bacon, use Smart Balance or spray olive oil. This eliminates the extra saturated fat and still has great flavor. I've tried all 3 versions. Jim , Chicago, Il	8 weeks 5 days ago

Loved it, but getting the recipe was very annoying having to see the very distracting advert running at the side of it in my perifeal vision, adverts jumping up and down should be banned as its annoying and distracting you from concentrating on what you are trying to do, but i loved and enjoyed the recipe.

No recipe is etched in stone, so try your own variations. The addition of Rosemary to the mushrooms was a wonderful new flavor. I'm reading now how rosemary has wonderful anti-oxident properties as well. I substituted turkey bacon to reduce the fat and keep the lovely bacon flavor. I also like to saute veggies in Macadamia nut oil, when I can find it, for a more nutty flavor. Low-carb Chef, Ashland, OH	8 weeks 5 days ago
I love rosemary & mushrooms & can't wait to try this recipe out. I'm a meatless household & mushrooms tend to add the 'savory' taste element without the need for additives like the bacon. For the gal looking for substitutes for the wine, try balsamic vinegar. It will add some taste of its own and a bit of acidity. I like it better than wine in dishes.

Haven't tried it yet. Sounds a good idea, except that I have read that health food addicts should avoid processed meats. It would be helpful to have an alternative meat for those who don't eat bacon (Jewish, Muslim and vegetarian family or friends and guests). I would try it with chicken. Of course you then lose the flavour. You can buy vegetarian bacon-flavour bits which we found a great substitute for bacon. The internet is worldwide and I'm in London, in the UK. It would be helpful to have other under location. I've put Maryland because that's where I used to live and in case your system won't let me comment unless I chose a US state and city. I tried to make my comment without adding a rating and it reloaded and made me type again which was a nuisance so I'm copying this before clicking on submit. Angella, Rockville, MD	8 weeks 5 days ago
