Ingredients

  • 1 pound wild mushrooms, washed and cut into 1/4-inch thick slices.

  • 3 to 4 cloves garlic, minced.

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil.

  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste.

Directions

  • In a medium sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

  • When the oil is fragrant (before it starts to smoke), add the chicken pieces and stir to coat.

  • Cook for 5 minutes. Add the onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir and cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the onion begins to brown.

  • Pour in 1/4 cup wine and bring mixture to a boil.

  • Cook until all liquid is absorbed, about 10 minutes, then add 1/4 cup wine, stir, and cook again.

  • If mushrooms are still a little tough after all liquid is absorbed, add more liquid and cook longer.

  • Otherwise, remove from heat and serve on crusty bread, toasted or grilled, brushed with olive oil or butter, and sprinkled with chopped fresh herbs.
