Whelp, Ben and I officiallyfinished the second season ofOrange is the New Black this week, or OITNB as the manic binge watching folk (ahem, us,) like to call it. Epic ending, but even better is I can finallyget some sleep! Anytime Ben and I pick a new series to watch on Netflix we feel the inexplicable need to watch the entire season in as little days as possible, not to be botheredby important things like, oh I don’t know, yard work, going through the mail in a timely fashion, and hitting the haybefore 11pm.
Watch How to Make Them!
I need a hobby.
Oh wait, I already do. Eating mushrooms. Are you sick of me talking about mushrooms yet??I promise I’ll give it a rest right aftersharing thisrecipe forEasy Garlic Butter Roasted Mushrooms,aka the one side dish you will NEVER STOP MAKING EVER! These mushrooms will make your mouth water in a way that only garlic and butter can…well that and salt and vinegar chips. Ben picked me up a bag the other day and omg, drool. Does that man get me or what?
Delicious side dish staples are tough to come by. Often they take a little bit of fuss that I don’t want to deal with and/or it’s a side salad which, let’s be real, isn’t very exciting.
Side salad: I’m just not that into you. There, I said it.
Anyway pair said side salad with Easy Garlic Butter Roasted Mushrooms and you’ve got yourself one heck of an epic dinner accompanying duo. Whole mushrooms are scrubbed then pan-roasted in butter melted with fresh garlic until tender and slightly crisp on top.Like I said– addicting in a way that only garlic-butter flavored foods can be. They’rea category all on theirown.You know what I mean.
How to Make Easy Garlic Butter Roasted Mushrooms
Start by picking up a 16oz container whole mushrooms – baby bellas, white, whatevah – they all roast up deliciously.
Gently wash away thedirt on the outside of the mushrooms then trim downany unruly stems and pat dry with a kitchen towel.
Add 1/4 cup butter and 4 cloves minced garlic to a small dish then microwave until melted, about 30 seconds. Ben and I both adore garlic so four cloves was just the right amount for us, but if you’re a little sensitive I’d go with two or three.
I’ve also made these mushrooms with Earth Balance vegan butter because I wanted Lincoln to try them (spoiler alert: he refused,) and they were just as delicious. So just know this dish could be vegan if you need it to be!
Now, while we’re doingthe mushroom wash and garlic butter dance, pop a large cast iron skillet into the oven then preheat it to 400 degrees. I like the way the hot skillet causesthe bottoms of the mushrooms to sizzle when I place them inside. If you don’t have a cast iron skillet you could definitely use a pie pan or baking dish. You won’t need to preheat those first though.
Place the mushrooms into the preheated skillet, cap side down, then drizzle the garlic butter on top, taking care to try and contain the garlic to the top of the mushrooms vs letting it fall down into the skillet or pan which could cause it to burn in the oven.
Season with salt and pepper then roast for 25-30 minutes, basting the mushrooms with the butter in the bottom of the skillet halfway through.
Easy Garlic Butter Roasted Mushrooms are up! If you’re a mushroom lover like me then you’ve got to make this recipe ASAP. Both Ben and I agreed it’s one of the bests side dishes with dinner we’ve ever had. Enjoy!

Y’all, these are our favorite side dish. However many you think you will need to make, double it. Every time I make these, my spouse and I stare at our plates sadly, and always agree I should have doubled it. I make it exactly as written.

Gave it a try with Baby Bella mushrooms and in a cast iron skillet in the oven at 400 degrees. Used butter and fresh garlic. Pretty good, but after 15 minutes I covered them with cheddar cheese and returned them to the oven for ten more minutes. 25 minute total as suggested. Next time I’m going to pull the stems rather than cut them off even and then oil the hollows with bacon bits first. My brother and daughter in law were over and also were pleased with them. Nice simple recipe. Thanks.
