    In a medium sized skillet, heat olive oil until shimmering. Add onion and cook at medium-low heat until translucent, about 5 or 6 minutes. Add garlic and cook until golden brown, about 1 minute. Add mushrooms and increase heat slightly. Cook until the mushrooms have thrown off their moisture and started to brown.
