Tips:
- Choose the right mushrooms. For this recipe, you'll want to use a variety of mushrooms that will hold their shape when cooked, such as cremini, shiitake, or portobello mushrooms.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the mushrooms, make sure to give them enough space in the pan so that they can brown evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the mushrooms will steam instead of brown.
- Cook the mushrooms in batches. If you're using a lot of mushrooms, you may need to cook them in batches. This will ensure that they all get cooked evenly.
- Use a good quality steak. The steak is the star of this dish, so make sure to use a good quality steak that is at least 1 inch thick.
- Cook the steak to your desired doneness. The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the steak and how you like it cooked.
- Make the walnut vinaigrette ahead of time. The vinaigrette can be made up to 24 hours in advance, so you can save time on busy weeknights.
