How to make it

  • Clean and cut 8oz of mushrooms into equal size pieces. Place in a ziplock bag. Shoot laser like looks at brother then grin like a Cheshire cat. Sprinkle a lot of garlic powder onto the mushrooms; seal the bag and shake to coat. Look back at brother decide that he really is a jerk add another liberal shot of garlic powder and shake to coat again. Add flour and salt into bag containing mushrooms and shake to coat.; set aside.
  • In a large skillet melt 1/4c. of the butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms, make sure to leave the kitchen fan off so brother gets full benefit of smelling garlic. Continue cooking until mushrooms begin to brown lightly. Add remaining butter if needed. At this point my brother would retreat to his room. Depending on if he had really been a jerk towards the end of cooking time I would add 4-6 cloves of minced garlic and begin sauteeing those until tender. At this point I would see a blur go by and a motorcycle head down the street. Mission accomplished and the mushrooms are done and ready to be served.

    For sure there's no such thing as Too Much Garlic! This is perfect for my tastes, and whoever runs away doesn't get any!

    This would not work for my girls as their brother is a wanna-be chef (pretty good, he might actually make it) and uses a lot of garlic. nice recipe.

    That's a "keeper" Coffeebean! I KNOW the mushrooms will be delicous (and garlicky, just like we like them), but the added benefit is just too good - wish I'd had this recipe when I was growing up!!!!!

    Oh, I'm still laughing. I read it to my husband and he got a chuckle, too. However, it does sound yummy. We are garlic fans, and he loves mushrooms--I can eat them some ways, and this sounds like one.
