Lemon-Pepper Mushrooms

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter or 1/2 tablespoon each unsalted butter and extra-virgin olive oil
• 20 ounces sliced white button mushrooms
• 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1 1/2 tablespoons minced or snipped fresh chives

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms in an even layer and sprinkle with the lemon zest. Cook, undisturbed, until browned, about 2 minutes. Toss with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper and continue to cook until the mushrooms are tender but not mushy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add additional salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with the chives. Serve warm.
