Instructions

If you haven’t already done so, start by cleaning the mushrooms. Take a wet paper towel and gently wipe off any dirt from the mushrooms. You do NOT want to rinse them because they absorb water easily and will turn out too chewy when cooked. Slice as desired.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the butter and olive oil. Once hot, add in the mushrooms in an even layer. Let the mushrooms sit on medium heat and do not touch them for about 3 minutes. This will create some nice caramelization around the edges of the mushrooms. Stir and cook for 2 more minutes.

Pour in the wine, if using, and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Stir in the garlic and parsley and cook for 1 additional minute.

Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve and ENJOY!

Notes

Prep before cooking. This recipe moves quickly. It’s a good idea to have your ingredients measured and chopped before heating your pan.

Storing. Sautéed oyster mushrooms are best enjoyed immediately. However, if you have leftovers, place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Be patient. When you add the mushrooms to the pan, let them cook for about 3 minutes without stirring or moving them around. This will help to caramelize the edges of the mushrooms for maximum flavor.

Variation ideas

Spicy. Add 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes.

Herbs. I typically use fresh parsley in this recipe, but other great options are dill, chives or thyme leaves.

Cheese. Stir in 2 to 4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese before serving.

Onions. Add 1 thinly sliced onion when you put the mushrooms in the pan to cook.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Dry Your Mushrooms Thoroughly 🍄
Pat oyster mushrooms completely dry with paper towels before cooking to ensure proper browning and prevent them from steaming instead of sautéing.
Don't Overcrowd the Pan 🍳
Cook mushrooms in a single layer with adequate space between pieces; overcrowding traps moisture and prevents the golden, caramelized edges that make this dish exceptional.
Slice Mushrooms Consistently 🔪
Cut oyster mushrooms into uniform, bite-sized pieces so they cook evenly and absorb the garlic butter sauce at the same rate for balanced flavor in every bite.
Butter Temperature Strategy 🧈
Add cold butter pieces in stages during the final minute rather than all at once to create a silky emulsion that coats the mushrooms beautifully without breaking.
Finish with White Wine Wisely 🍷
Add the white wine splash just before the butter to deglaze the pan and create a concentrated, aromatic sauce that enhances umami depth without making the dish watery.
