Equipment

  • Large nonstick or stainless steel skillet

Ingredients
  

For the Mushrooms

  • 10 oz oyster mushrooms trimmed and torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

For the Garlic Butter

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 clove garlic minced or grated
  • 1/4 cup fresh Italian parsley chopped

Instructions
 

  • Gently wipe mushrooms with a cloth to remove dirt. Trim the tough stems and tear into even pieces.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add olive oil and arrange mushrooms in a single layer.
  • Let mushrooms cook undisturbed for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper. Flip and cook another 2 minutes.
  • Transfer mushrooms to a plate. Remove pan from heat and add butter, garlic, and parsley. Swirl to melt and release aroma.
  • Drizzle garlic butter over mushrooms and serve immediately.

Notes

Try using pink or golden oyster mushrooms for variety. Do not overcrowd the pan or rinse mushrooms under water. Serve over toast, pasta, or eggs for a gourmet touch.
