Cook the Mushrooms: In a large skillet or frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the sliced mushrooms to the pan. Cook the mushrooms in the butter until they are tender and golden brown, stirring occasionally. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Season and Thicken: Once the mushrooms are cooked to perfection, it’s time to add flavor and texture. Sprinkle the salt, pepper, and flour over the mushrooms in the pan. Stir well to ensure that the mushrooms are evenly coated with the seasoning and flour.
Add the Creamy Sauce: Gradually pour in the milk, stirring constantly as you do so. Continue to cook the mushrooms in the creamy sauce, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened and the mushrooms are well-coated. This should take about 5-8 minutes of simmering over medium-low heat.
Serve and Enjoy: Once the creamy mushrooms are ready, remove the skillet from the heat. Transfer the mushrooms to a serving dish or individual plates. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired, and serve hot as a side dish or over cooked rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.
