  1. 1

    Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over high heat until very hot. Add the mushrooms.

    Sauté, shaking the pan vigorously from time to time, for about 5 minutes until the mushrooms begin to release their natural juices.

    Lower heat to medium, add the garlic, and sauté for 2 more minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic.

  4. 4

    Squeeze the lemon juice over the mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Remove from heat and pour into a glass or ceramic container. Stir in the chopped parsley and enough extra virgin olive oil to coat the mushrooms evenly.
