Sauteed Chicken of the Woods

Step 1

Cut the chicken mushrooms into ½ inch thick pieces. Bring the mushrooms and water to a simmer in a 10 inch saute pan on medium-high heat. Allow the liquid to reduce.

Step 2

You need to saute chicken of the woods for at least 10 minutes if you or people your serving them to haven't eaten them before. Set a timer if you need.

Step 3

When the pan is nearly dry, push the mushrooms to one side of the pan. Add the oil and garlic and allow to cook until the garlic is golden and aromatic.

Step 4

Season the mushrooms with a pinch of salt. Add the shallot, and thyme, still keep the mixture on one side of the pan. After 1-2 minutes, toss the mushrooms with the shallot and continue cooking.

Step 5

Double check the seasoning for salt and pepper and adjust until it tastes good to you. Serve the mushrooms as part of a larger dish like chicken of the woods with mushrooms and peppers (refer to the video), or as a simple mushroom side dish.
