Description
These air fryer roasted mushrooms are tossed in a savory garlic butter and cooked to crispy perfection in just 15 minutes. The perfect restaurant-worthy side dish for steak, chicken, pasta, or salads—minimal effort, maximum flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh cremini or baby bella mushrooms
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 large garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Wipe mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove dirt. Trim stems and cut large mushrooms in half so pieces are similar in size.
- Melt butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl. Stir in minced garlic and let sit for 1 minute to infuse.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine mushrooms, garlic butter, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss until mushrooms are evenly coated.
- Place mushrooms in air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry at 400°F for 8-10 minutes, shaking or tossing halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Transfer mushrooms to a serving bowl and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Drizzle any leftover garlic butter from the bowl over the top. Serve immediately.
Notes
Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket for best crispiness. Infuse garlic in butter for deeper flavor. Use fresh herbs for brightness. Mushrooms shrink as they cook, so start light on salt and adjust after roasting. Save leftover garlic butter for drizzling over veggies or bread. For vegan, substitute butter with vegan margarine or use all olive oil.
