Shiitake Shakedown

Total Time: 20 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• 3 (3 1/4 ounce) crates fresh shiitake mushrooms
• 3 tablespoons light olive oil
• 1/8 teaspoon salt (or just shake it over the shrooms)
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper (or just shake it over the shrooms too)
• 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder (or just shake this over them too!)

Recipe

• 1 preheat the oven to 400 degrees f.
• 2 use a damp paper towel to wash the tops of your mushrooms. (mushrooms are like sponges, you don't want to wash them in water because they will become watery and tasteless).
• 3 remove any large stems. (shiitake stems are sort of woody and tougher than the caps).
• 4 slice the mushrooms and place on a cookie baking sheet.
• 5 pour the olive oil over the slices and toss to coat with a spatula.
• 6 sprinkle the shrooms with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• 7 give the cookie sheet a shake to spread all the shrooms out flat.
• 8 roast in the oven for 10 minutes.
• 9 remove the mushrooms immediately from the baking sheet with a spatula.
• 10 enjoy on a sandwich or any way you want!
