Ingredients
- 8 oz (225 g) gluten-free fusili pasta
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoon fresh thyme chopped
- 1 cup oyster mushrooms cleaned and chopped
- 1 cup maitake mushrooms cleaned and chopped
- salt pepper to taste
- fresh thyme chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Add a pinch of salt and the gluten-free fusilli (or your choice of fresh pasta). Cook according to the package directions until al dente.
- Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water, and set both aside.
- Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and olive oil.
- Once the butter has melted, add the oyster and maitake mushrooms to the skillet. Cook the mushrooms in a single layer for about 5-7 minutes until they soften and develop a golden, crispy texture.
- For best results, cook half of the mushrooms at a time, then transfer them to a plate before adding the remaining batch.
- Reduce the heat to medium and return all the mushrooms to the pan.
- Add the chopped fresh thyme leaves and stir to release their aroma.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the cast iron skillet with the mushrooms to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are crispy and slightly caramelized.
- Remove the skillet from the oven.
- Place the cooked pasta on plates or bowls.
- Top the pasta with the crispy mushrooms from the skillet.
- Garnish with additional freshly chopped thyme for an herby finish.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your comforting maitake mushroom pasta with fresh thyme!
