Ingredients
- 16 ounces whole button mushrooms, cleaned and stems trimmed
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon halal Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon onion powder

- 1 teaspoon dried parsley

- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel and trim the stems if necessary.
