Method
- 1
Halve or quarter mushrooms to uniform size. Toss with olive oil, garlic, soy sauce, salt, and pepper.
- 2
Air fry at 400°F for 8-10 minutes, shaking halfway, until golden brown and slightly crispy on edges.
- 3
Toss with butter, fresh thyme, and parsley.
- 4
Drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired.
- 5
Serve as a side dish or over toast, steak, or pasta.
Pro tip. Don't wash mushrooms — wipe them with a damp towel. Water makes them steam instead of roast. The soy sauce adds umami depth without making them taste Asian. They shrink significantly, so start with more than you think you need.
Why the air fryer wins here
- Ready in 10 minutes. The same dish takes about 16 in a conventional oven, plus preheating.
- Fast-moving hot air browns the outside before the inside dries out, so you get color without babysitting.
- Cleanup is a basket, not a sheet pan and a splattered stovetop.
Storing and reheating
Refrigerate perishable leftovers within 2 hours, or within 1 hour above 90°F. Reheat leftovers to 165°F (74°C) throughout, measured with a food thermometer. USDA leftover safety guidance.
Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-5 minutes rather than the microwave so the outside crisps back up. See the reheat guide for exact times by food.
