✅Ingredient Notes
- White Button Mushrooms: Use fresh, firm mushrooms for the best texture. You can also use cremini or baby bella mushrooms for a deeper flavor. Slice them evenly for even cooking.
- Cowboy Butter: This is the star ingredient! It’s packed with herbs, garlic, and spices, adding rich flavor to the mushrooms. Make it ahead and keep it ready in the fridge.
- Salt: Add to taste, but remember the cowboy butter already has plenty of seasoning, so taste first before adding extra.

🔪How to Make Cowboy Mushrooms
Melt the Cowboy Butter: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the cowboy butter. Let it melt completely.

Add the Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and stir to coat them evenly with the melted butter.

Cook: Cook the mushrooms, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes until they become tender and develop a rich golden-brown color.
Serve: Transfer the mushrooms to a serving dish and enjoy them warm!

These mushrooms were the highlight of our dinner! The buttery, garlicky flavor was incredible, and they were so easy to make. We served them over steak, but I’d happily eat them on their own!

Yay! I’m glad to hear they were a hit! They pair so well with steak but make a great side for almost anything. Thanks for giving them a try!
