These Southern-Style Spanish Mushrooms, are possibly the best-tasting mushrooms I have ever tasted. We´re talking a huge explosion of flavors and the most incredible textures. But the best part? This recipe is super easy to make and it all comes together in under 30 minutes.

Southern-Style Spanish Mushrooms | Champiñones a la Andaluza Recipe (3)
This dish hails from the beautiful region of Andalucia in the south of Spain, where it´s known as Champiñones a la Andaluza. It´s typically served as a tapas appetizer, but you can also serve them as a side dish.

To make this recipe, I used button mushrooms, but you can use any mushrooms you like. I prefer to use button mushrooms (as they do in Andalucia). As their mild flavor doesn´t over-power all the great flavors in the pan.

TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: When you cook your mushrooms, cook them for 2 minutes per side without mixing them. This helps remove any of the excess water in the mushrooms and gives them a beautiful crusty sear.

    I love your recipes. They take me back to a wonderful trip to Spain when I was about 30 years younger! My Spanish was very basic. Almost everyone I met was super kind, patient and helpful. I am a huge Almodóvar fan so I Loved Madrid the most. The food was outstanding. Thank you for making some of these wonderful dishes approachable.
    I do find that I have to modify your timings. Particularly with the potato dishes. But that’s ok. I have also upped my garlic game. Gone is the huge jar of pre chopped garlic. Now I have a splendid garlic stone and a pestle and mortar. Muchísimas Gracias! Sorry, I’m too lazy to mess with my ipad keyboard to get the Spanish exclamation marks. Saludos, tu Elizabeth!

    OMG! This is the best yet!!! Even my husband who doesn’t like mushrooms couldn’t get enough of this. I served it as a side with a pork cutlet. Thank you Albert. I so appreciate the fact that your recipes are for families of two.

    it seems like a lot of your recipes have smoked paprika. Is this a stable in Spanish cooking?

      Yes, smoked paprika is used in many dishes in Spain, I use it a bit more than normal, just because I love it and it adds a great flavor to any dish 🙂 much love
