  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

¼ cup unsalted butter

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 small sliced onion

½ head cauliflower cut into small florets

1 pound cremini mushrooms halved or quartered if large

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (a mix of basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, marjoram, or pantry herbs)

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

¼ cup low sodium vegetable broth or chicken stock

3 cloves garlic minced

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped for garnish

Instructions

1-Let’s dive into making this Garlic Cauliflower Mushroom Skillet with a straightforward process that anyone can follow. Start by heating the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat until the butter melts, which helps prevent burning and adds rich flavor. Once melted, add the sliced onion and cook it slowly for 4-5 minutes until it turns golden brown and caramelized, stirring frequently for even results.

2-Next, toss in the cauliflower florets, mushrooms, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and vegetable broth. Sauté everything for 8-10 minutes over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables brown and get tender. This step brings out the natural sweetness and earthiness of the ingredients. Finally, stir in the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until it smells fragrant, then adjust the seasoning, remove from heat, and garnish with red pepper flakes and fresh parsley.

Notes

🧈 Use a combination of butter and olive oil to prevent butter from burning during cooking.
🍳 Slowly caramelize onions over low heat for rich flavor and avoid burning by stirring frequently.
🌱 For a vegan version, omit butter or substitute with plant-based alternatives.
