mushroom salad with lemon, thyme & parmigiano

Ingredients

• 1 large lemon
• 2 Tbs. minced shallot (about 1 small)
• 2 Tbs. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 1 Tbs. coarsely chopped fresh thyme
• Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1/3 cup plus 1 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 lb. button mushrooms, cleaned, trimmed, and sliced 1/4 inch thick
• Scant 1/2 cup shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano (use a vegetable peeler)

Directions

1. Finely grate 1 tsp. zest from the lemon and then squeeze 2 Tbs. of juice. In a large serving bowl, mix the zest and juice with the shallot, parsley, thyme, nutmeg, 11/2 tsp. salt, and a few grinds of pepper. Whisk in the olive oil. Add the mushrooms and stir gently to coat. Let the salad marinate for 10 minutes.
2. Just before serving, stir the mushrooms again, season to taste with salt and pepper, and scatter the Parmigiano on top.
