   Once it’s shimmering, toss in diced mushrooms, chopped onion, and minced garlic.

   Sauté this colorful mix for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the veggies are tender and the mushrooms have released their flavorful moisture.

   When they’re just right, transfer the mixture to a paper towel-lined plate to soak up any excess liquid.
