These delectable roasted chanterelles prove that sometimes simple is best! Serve these delicious mushrooms with a roast chicken, toss them with pasta, or serve them on a buttered slice of toasted baguette. If you can’t find chanterelles, this same method of cooking can be used for many other kinds of mushrooms.
Ingredients:
- 8 ounces rinsed and trimmed chanterelle mushrooms, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 thinly sliced peeled shallot (about 2 oz.)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon fresh tarragon leaves, chopped
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
Preparation:
In a 12″ x 15″ baking pan or baking sheet, mix mushrooms, shallot, olive oil, melted butter, thyme, tarragon, salt, and pepper. Bake in a 400° oven, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and beginning to brown on edges, 12 – 15 minutes. Use immediately or let stand until ready to use, up to 4 hours.
