Ingredients:
- 1 pound fresh mushrooms (such as button or cremini), cleaned and halved
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: grated Parmesan cheese for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for a few minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the halved mushrooms, melted butter, minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the mushrooms are evenly coated with the garlic butter mixture.
- Place the garlic butter mushrooms in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Air fry the mushrooms at 375°F (190°C) for about 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking. The mushrooms should be tender and golden brown when done.
- Remove the cooked garlic butter mushrooms from the air fryer basket and transfer them to a serving dish.
- Optional: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the hot mushrooms for added flavor.
- Serve the air fryer garlic butter mushrooms immediately as a delicious side dish or appetizer.
Note: You can adjust the seasoning according to your taste preferences. Feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat or a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness. These garlic butter mushrooms pair well with grilled meats, pasta dishes, or as a topping for salads. Enjoy the flavorful and easy-to-make air fryer recipe!
