5 steps

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
2 cups shiitake mushroom caps, sliced thinly

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 350*F. Place a silpat over a baking sheet(or use parchment paper or spray with cooking oil spray), set aside.
2

Combine all of the ingredients except for the sliced shiitake into a shallow glass pyrex or bowl. Whisk to combine.
3

Add in the sliced shiitake, and stir gently to combine. Allow to marinate for 20 minutes to an hour.
4

Place the shiitake in a single layer onto the silpat. Bake for 10 minutes, flip, then bake for an additional 15 minutes. Increase the heat to 375, then bake for 10 minutes more. Flip, then finish for 10 more minutes. Keep an eye on them towards the end to ensure they do not burn.
5

Remove from the oven and place on paper towels to drain. As they drain, the edges will become crispy. Serve immediately.
