2 servings
INGREDIENTS
- 8 ounces Black Oyster mushrooms
- 1+ T olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 springs of fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon butter or ghee
- Salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
- Trim of the very end of the mushroom stems. You can leave mushrooms whole, cut them length-wise, or slice the stems into several little medallions and keep the cap whole. Whatever you choose, it’s best to work with similarly sized pieces of mushrooms so they cook evenly.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, then add the mushrooms, cooking 3-5 minutes without stirring until they begin to brown.
- Continue to sautee, stirring occasionally, for another 3-5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are very well browned.
- Add the butter/ghee, garlic, and thyme and reduce heat to low. Cook about 5 minutes more, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are dark brown and crisped to your liking.
- Remove thyme sprigs, season with S+P to taste, and enjoy!
