8 ounces portabella mushrooms, coarsely chopped

3 cups fat-free low-sodium chicken broth or 3 cups vegetable broth
-
1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons dill weed, snipped or 2 teaspoons dried dill
Instructions
- Heat a medium nonstick saucepan over medium heat. Pour the oil into the pan and swirl to coat the bottom. Cook the mushrooms, onion, and garlic for 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms have released some of their juices and the onions are translucent, stirring occasionally.
