Balsamic Sautéed Mushrooms
We tinkered a paleo recipe replacing bacon fat or lard with paper thin slices of prosciutto di Parma. Tangy, rich caramelized flavors of Villa Graziella Organic 8-Year Aged Balsamic Vinegar di Modena make it an easy to prepare, week night side dish. Pair perfectly with protein rich grilled chicken, fish or steak. Makes 4 servings.
Easy Ingredients
1 lb. white button mushrooms
3 slices of prosciutto di Parma or San Daniele
2 tablespoons Villa Graziella Organic Balsamic Vinegar
½ tablespoon Villa Graziella Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1 Small onion, finely minced (approx. 1/3 cup)
½ tsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. freshly ground pepper to taste
