I've made this several times because it makes a great side dish to go along with spicy dishes. But I have also used it as a topper for grilled steaks.

How To Make mushroom and leek sauté

  • 1
    Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms, garlic, pepper and salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 to 15 minutes or until they release their water and the skillet begins to dry out.
  • 2
    Add the leeks and cook, stirring frequently, for about 2 to 3 minutes or until the leeks begin to soften a bit. Add the tarragon, and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • 3
    It's great as a side dish or as a savory topper for grilled/broiled steaks.
