  • 1-1/2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 teaspoons butter, divided
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil, divided

I loved this dish. I didn't have grated parmesan cheese but the sprinkle kind worked just fine. I also used black chinese mushrooms and they were delicious. I wished I had made more of the sauce though so if you like sauce atleast double that.
