Garlic Butter Air Fryer Mushrooms
Description
This recipe calls for cleaning mushrooms gently and tossing them in olive oil and soy sauce with pepper before air frying at 400°F. Shaking the basket halfway ensures even cooking and browning. After air frying for 6-8 minutes, the mushrooms are coated with melted butter infused with garlic and sprinkled with fresh parsley for added aroma and freshness.
The mushrooms develop a slightly crisp exterior while retaining a tender interior. The combination of soy sauce and garlic butter delivers savory umami flavors complemented by the herby parsley. This method avoids sogginess and highlights the mushroom's natural taste.
Serving these mushrooms warm makes a pleasant side dish to grilled meats or as a flavorful snack. They can be paired with crusty bread or used as a topping for steaks.
Note the importance of preheating the air fryer and avoiding overcrowding the basket to ensure crispness. Prepare the garlic butter in advance for convenience, and any leftover garlic butter can be used as a spread or sauce for other dishes.
Ingredients
- 1 pound mushrooms halved if large
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter melted, with garlic
- 1 tablespoon parsley chopped, fresh
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F.
- Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp paper towel.

- Place mushrooms in the air fryer for 6-8 minutes, shaking the basket after 4 minutes.
- Remove from the air fryer and place in a small bowl. Toss with garlic butter and parsley.

Notes
- Prepare garlic butter by mixing crushed garlic with salted butter and parsley; melt only what is needed for the recipe and save the rest for other uses like spreading on bread or steaks.
- Gently clean mushrooms by rinsing briefly and patting dry to avoid sogginess.
- Toss mushrooms in soy sauce just before air frying to maintain texture.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F to promote even cooking and browning.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if needed to ensure the mushrooms become crispy all around.
- If making multiple batches, reheat all cooked mushrooms together briefly before serving.
