Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Cook the lasagna noodles according to package directions until just al dente — tender but with a slight resistance at the center. Drain, drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, and lay flat on a lightly oiled baking sheet to prevent sticking. Set aside.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp of the butter for the filling and, once foaming, add half the mushrooms in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes until the undersides are deep golden brown, then stir and cook 2 minutes more until the moisture has evaporated and the mushrooms are well-browned. Transfer to a bowl and repeat with another 1 tbsp butter and the remaining mushrooms.
