Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb mushrooms, trimmed and cleaned Choose firm mushrooms with no slimy spots.
  • 2 Tbsp vegetable oil Can substitute with olive oil or avocado oil.
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped Adjust garlic amount as desired.
  • 2 tsp fresh thyme, chopped About 4 to 6 sprigs.
  • 2 Tbsp butter Add after roasting for a rich finish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Choose a large baking sheet with enough room to spread the mushrooms out in a single layer.
  2. Trim any dry stem ends and wipe away dirt. If you rinse the mushrooms, dry them thoroughly. Leave small mushrooms whole and cut larger ones in half.
  3. Place the mushrooms in a large bowl. Add the vegetable oil, kosher salt, black pepper, chopped garlic, and fresh thyme. Toss until the mushrooms are evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. Spread the seasoned mushrooms across the baking sheet in one layer, leaving space between them.
  2. Roast the mushrooms for 20 to 25 minutes, checking near the 20-minute mark. They are ready when tender and starting to brown.
  3. Transfer the hot mushrooms to a bowl and toss with the butter until it melts and coats them.
Serving
  1. Serve warm alongside steak, prime rib, or your favorite main dish.

Notes

Mushrooms can be made ahead and reheated gently in a pan. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 4 days.
