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 First 🍄
Pat oyster mushrooms completely dry with paper towels before cooking to achieve a golden sear instead of steaming them in their own moisture.
Brown Butter for Depth 🧈
Let your butter cook for 2-3 minutes until it turns golden brown and smells nutty, which adds a sophisticated richness that regular melted butter cannot match.
Slice Mushrooms Uniformly 🔪
Cut oyster mushrooms into similarly-sized pieces to ensure even cooking throughout, preventing some from becoming mushy while others remain undercooked.
Finish with Raw Garlic 🧄
Reserve some minced raw garlic to stir in during the final 30 seconds of cooking, providing a bright, fresh garlic note that balances the cooked garlic's mellow sweetness.
Deglaze with White Wine Strategically 🍷
Add white wine after searing the mushrooms and let it reduce by half before adding butter, which creates a silky pan sauce that coats the mushrooms beautifully.
