Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling, about 20 minutes.

Step 2

Position a rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook until starting to soften, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate or bowl. Wipe out skillet.
