Pan Fried Shiitake Mushroom Bacon

Pan Fried Shiitake Mushroom Bacon

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces shiitake mushrooms washed, dried, stems discarded, and sliced thinly
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, combine sliced mushrooms, 2 tablespoons of oil, and salt. Stir gently until oil is well distributed, adding up to 2 more tablespoons of oil to ensure well-covered mushrooms.
  • Spread the mushrooms in a single layer on a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Flip/stir every 3-5 minutes for about 15-20 minutes. Try not to over stir to allow the mushrooms to be well seared. The shiitake mushrooms are done when you take one off the pan, let it cool for a few seconds and bite down into a crispy, tasty sliver of mushroom.
  • These mushrooms are best enjoyed the same day you cook them.
