How to Make Mushroom Lasagna

Step 1: Prepare the Mushroom Filling

  1. Cook the Mushrooms: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they begin to release their moisture and turn golden brown. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  2. Add Onions and Garlic: Add the chopped onion to the mushrooms and sauté for another 2-3 minutes until the onions are softened. Stir in the minced garlic and dried thyme, cooking for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Deglaze the Pan: If using white wine, pour it in now, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the wine cook off for 2-3 minutes, until the liquid is mostly absorbed.
  4. Finish the Filling: Stir in the butter and season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set the mushroom mixture aside.
