PAN-FRIED MUSHROOMS

By LACHELLE CUNNINGHAM

Ingredients

1 lbs Mushrooms (oyster, maitake, or lion’s mane) rinse, air dry and cut in half
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
½ cup flour
1-2 tablespoons
Cooking Oil, and more as needed

Preparation

  1. In a bowl, toss mushrooms with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of cajun seasoning.
  2. Allow the seasoned mushrooms to marinate for 10 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile in a bowl, add the flour with ½teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of cajun seasoning, whisk it together.
  4. Add seasoned mushrooms to the bowl with the flour mixture, and toss until lightly and evenly coated (does not need to be caked in flour).
  5. Heat 1-2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pan, preferably a cast iron skillet.
  6. Before adding each mushroom to the pan make sure you shake off the excess flour. Fry the mushrooms on all sides in batches until golden brown (3-4 minutes per side), adding oil between batches as needed. Once the mushrooms are golden brown remove them from the pan and let them drain on a cooling rack or paper towels.
  7. Keep the fried mushrooms warm until you’re ready to serve.
