Ingredients
  

  • 2.5 lb onions
  • 24 oz mushrooms
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper

Instructions
 

  • Slice up your garlic and onions. Melt butter in your skillet over medium heat and cook the sliced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add onions to the pan and stir occasionally- if your mushrooms need cut up do that during this time. When the excess moisture from the onions has evaporated off, about 20 minutes, add the white wine, salt, and pepper.
  • Continue to stir occasionally, and after 10 more minutes (half hour total cooking) add the mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms are cooked down and the liquid from them has mostly evaporated.

Notes

We don't want the onions to burn- while they'll sizzle a bit when first hitting the pan, if they sizzle after cooking down before the 15 minute mark, turn the heat down and add a bit of water (or extra white wine) to the pan.
