Sauteed Mushrooms w/Garlic and Onion

Is there a more perfect accompaniment to a grilled steak than sauteed mushrooms with garlic and onion?  I think not!  You can switch this recipe up, make it healthier by not using butter to sautee in, or do whatever you wish.  You will still have deliciousness!  And really, I make these just to eat it without steak!  It's perfect either way.

Ingredients:

- 2 pkgs Fresh mushrooms, sliced
- Red onion, diced
- Garlic (I used the jarred)
- 1/2 stick butter
- Parsley, to taste
- Crushed Red Pepper, to taste

Directions:

1.  Heat your pan on medium high heat.  Add the butter in and roll it around.  When your butter starts to melt and it's sizzling away, add your mushrooms.  And, if your pan looks as beat up as mine, I'll feel a whole lot better about it!


2.  Now toss in your onions and season with the parsley and crushed red pepper flakes.  Let them cook until your mushrooms and onions are cooked through and slightly brown.  Now toss in your garlic.  Let it cook another minute or so.  You add your garlic towards the end like this so it doesn't burn and get bitter.



Here's the final product.....

Very rich and decadent!  And they're only mushrooms!  Make this "side dish" tonight!!  Enjoy!
