Description
A quick and flavorful vegetarian dish featuring sautéed oyster mushrooms cooked to golden perfection with garlic and butter. Ready in just 20 minutes, it’s perfect as a side, starter, or main.
Ingredients
10 ounces (284 g) oyster mushrooms
1 tablespoon (15 ml) extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons (30 g) butter
1 clove garlic, finely chopped or grated
¼ cup (15 g) fresh Italian parsley leaves
Instructions
1. Gently pat the mushrooms with a clean towel to absorb excess moisture. Trim off the hard stem base. Separate large clusters into bite-sized pieces.
2. Heat a 10–12-inch nonstick sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil when hot.
3. Arrange mushrooms in one layer. Cook undisturbed until golden brown on one side.
4. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss the mushrooms and cook for another minute.
5. Transfer mushrooms to a serving platter.
6. Off heat, add butter, garlic, and parsley to the hot pan. Swirl until the butter melts and garlic is fragrant.
7. Pour the garlic butter over the mushrooms and serve immediately.
Notes
Do not crowd the mushrooms—cook in batches if necessary.
Make mushroom toast with garlic bread and grated cheese.
Toss sautéed mushrooms with pasta or stir into scrambled eggs for a hearty breakfast.
