Tips & Tricks for Perfect Creamy Garlic Mushrooms

✅ Choose the Right Mushrooms – Baby Bella, cremini, or white button mushrooms work best. Slice them evenly for consistent cooking.

✅ Don’t Overcrowd the Pan – Cook mushrooms in a single layer to allow proper browning and prevent steaming.

✅ Enhance the Flavor – A splash of white wine or a dash of Dijon mustard adds depth to the creamy sauce.

✅ Thicken the Sauce – If the sauce is too thin, let it simmer for an extra minute, or add a small slurry of cornstarch and water.

✅ Serving Ideas – Pair with grilled steak, roasted chicken, pasta, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread for a delicious meal.
