Scale
Ingredients
- 16 ounces baby portobello mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare Mushrooms: Wash and thoroughly dry the baby portobello mushrooms to remove any dirt or debris. Preheat your air fryer to 390°F (199°C) to get it ready for cooking.
- Chop Mushrooms: Cut the mushrooms in half to ensure even cooking and to allow the seasoning to penetrate better.
- Toss Ingredients: Place the chopped mushrooms in a medium bowl. Add the olive oil, minced garlic, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Toss everything together until the mushrooms are evenly coated.
- Air Fry Mushrooms: Transfer the seasoned mushrooms to the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 9 to 10 minutes, shaking or flipping the mushrooms halfway through cooking to ensure they crisp up evenly.
- Serve: Once cooked, remove the mushrooms from the air fryer basket and transfer them to a serving dish. Serve warm as a side dish or a tasty snack.
Notes
- Be sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow even cooking and prevent sogginess.
- Adjust cooking time slightly depending on the size and moisture content of the mushrooms.
- Feel free to add fresh herbs like thyme or parsley for extra flavor.
- For a spicier version, sprinkle some red pepper flakes before air frying.
