Russian Style Sautéed Chanterelles

This is a beautiful mushroom in every way. They are a lovely pale orange in color, the scent is often described as being similar to apricots or peaches, they have a mild, but saturated flavor which stands up to other ingredients, and they have a chewy texture. This is an old recipe from the Old World. It's easy, it's fast, and it's delicious. The bacon flavor lends itself well either to a breakfast dish, or a side dish at dinnertime.
