Ciabatta with Garlic Mushrooms Recipe

Ciabatta with Garlic Mushrooms Recipe

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 6 cups halved white mushrooms
  • 8 slices ciabatta bread
  • 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
  • Dash Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 ounce Parmesan cheese shavings
  • Salt and fresh-ground pepper
  • Flat-leaf parsley sprigs
  1. Heat the broiler to high. Melt the butter in a skillet. When the butter starts to sizzle, add the garlic and saute 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and saute over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until lightly cooked, 4 to 5 minutes.
  2. Place the ciabatta slices on the broiler pan and toast until lightly brown, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Turn them over and toast the other side until it is lightly brown, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Remove from the broiler and keep warm.
  3. Add the mustard to the mushrooms, and stir in. Reduce the heat slightly and add the Worcestershire sauce and seasoning to taste. Cook 1 minute longer, then remove the pan from the heat.
  4. Place 2 slices of ciabatta bread on each plate. Spoon the mushrooms and their cooking juices over the bread. Sprinkle with the Parmesan shavings and garnish with sprigs of parsley.
