🥦🍄 Sautéed Mushroom and Broccoli — A Simple Yet Flavorful Favorite!

There’s something deeply comforting about a warm skillet full of vibrant green broccoli and golden sautéed mushrooms. This dish is so easy to throw together, but the flavors are anything but basic. It’s got that garlicky, umami-rich depth that just hits right every time. 😍

Whether you’re serving it as a vegetarian main or a cozy side dish with grilled protein, this one’s a keeper.

🍽️ Ingredients (serves 2–4):

  • 1–2 tbsp olive oil or butter (or both!) 🧈
  • 3 cups broccoli florets (fresh or lightly steamed) 🥦
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms (white button, cremini, or shiitake) 🍄
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced 🧄
  • Salt & black pepper to taste
  • A splash of low-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos (optional, for depth)
  • Red pepper flakes or lemon zest (optional garnish)
  • A drizzle of sesame oil (optional, for a nutty twist)

🔥 Instructions:

  1. Steam or blanch the broccoli just until bright green and slightly tender (about 2–3 minutes). Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil/butter over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the mushrooms and sauté for 4–6 minutes, letting them brown and release their moisture. Don’t crowd the pan — you want those edges crispy!
  4. Add in the minced garlic and stir until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
  5. Toss in the broccoli florets and sauté everything together for another 2–3 minutes.
  6. Season with salt, pepper, and if using, a splash of soy sauce or drizzle of sesame oil.
  7. Serve warm, topped with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or fresh lemon zest for a zingy finish. 🍋✨
