Instructions

Clean mushrooms with damp paper towel and slice into uniform thick pieces.

Remove stems from shiitake mushrooms and slice caps into bite-sized pieces.

Heat olive oil and butter in large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add sliced mushrooms in single layer, avoiding overcrowding the pan.

Cook mushrooms without stirring for 4-5 minutes until golden brown develops.

Season with salt and pepper, then stir and continue cooking until tender.

Meanwhile, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and mirin for glaze.

Add brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and red pepper flakes to glaze mixture.

Push mushrooms to one side of skillet and add minced garlic to empty space.

Add chopped shallots and grated ginger, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Stir garlic mixture into mushrooms and cook together for 1 minute more.

Pour honey soy glaze over mushrooms and stir to coat evenly.

Let glaze simmer and reduce for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

Mix cornstarch with cold water to create slurry for additional thickening.

Add cornstarch slurry if needed for glossy, coating consistency on mushrooms.

Stir in sesame oil and garlic powder for final flavor enhancement.

Remove from heat and taste, adjusting seasoning with salt or honey as needed.

Sprinkle with fresh parsley, chives, and thyme leaves for bright finish.

Transfer to serving dish and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
