I am sharing my kitchen secret with you. I first read the small paragraph in Barbara Kafka's Microwave Gourmet about the possibilities of achieving sauteed mushrooms quickly in the microwave without a drop of butter. Then I began preparing my Portabello mushrooms this way to top my signature pizza (have you ever noticed that if you pile a lot of toppings on a pizza, it's hard to cook everything through?). I admit I use dry sherry almost as much as I use olive oil! One giant Portabello mushroom (5 -6 diameter) yielded 2 cups raw mushroom slice halves, which yielded 1 cup sauteed mushrooms for my pizza. These would also make a wonderful accompaniment to steaks or burgers, or omelets, or on other veggies...
Ingredients:
2 cups mushrooms, cleaned, trimmed, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1/2 cup dry sherry or 1/2 cup red wine or 1/2 cup chicken broth or 1/2 cup beef broth or 1/2 cup vegetable broth
Directions:
1. If using giant Portabello mushrooms, please halve each mushroom slice.
2. Place sliced mushrooms in microwave-safe pasta dish.
3. Pour dry sherry or red wine over mushrooms. Cover loosely with wax paper.
4. Microwave 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, until sauteed. .
5. Drain before using.
