Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 16 oz whole button or cremini mushrooms cleaned and stems trimmed
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped

Method
 

  1. Pat the cleaned mushrooms very dry with a paper towel so the oil and seasonings will cling.
  2. Add the mushrooms to a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss until evenly coated and lightly glossy.
  3. Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried Italian herbs, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss again until all mushrooms are evenly coated with seasoning.
  4. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F for 3 to 5 minutes.
  5. Arrange the seasoned mushrooms in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving a little space between each one for air circulation.
  6. Air fry at 380°F for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cook time.
  7. Check for doneness; the mushrooms should be tender with slightly shriveled skins and browned spots. If needed, cook 1 to 2 minutes more.
  8. Transfer the hot mushrooms to a serving dish, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, and serve immediately.

Notes

- Drying the mushrooms well before seasoning helps them brown instead of steam in the air fryer.
- Cook in batches if needed to keep the mushrooms in a single layer so they crisp properly.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container lined with a paper towel in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat leftovers in the air fryer at 350°F for 3 to 4 minutes until heated through and lightly crisp.
