mushroom fajitas

mushroom fajitas

mushroom fajitas. delicious & no one had to die. this is an outline of a recipe, use what you have. i cleaned out my fridge after 3 weeks of eating out way too much. here’s how:

you’ll need:

mushrooms (i used shiitake mushrooms & baby portabello)
1 medium onion, sliced into strips
1 red pepper, sliced into strips
1 green pepper. sliced into strips
1 garlic cloves, peeled & smashed
salt
½ teaspoon cumin
veg oil

you’ll do:

remove stem from shiitakes with scissors. (keeps stems to make stock). leave whole if around the size of a quarter. otherwise, cut in half. slice other button style mushrooms. set aside. heat oil in a cast iron skillet. add garlic cloves, this flavors the oil. remove garlic when it browns. add onions & peppers. after about 3 minutes, add the button type sliced mushrooms. after about 2 minutes, add shiitakes. do not add salt. cook & stir frequently until mushrooms are done, about 6 minutes.

season with cumin & salt. set heat to low.
