Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

I recommend cooking these mushrooms just before serving for the best taste. You can prepare the ingredients and get everything ready beforehand, but the dish is the best when the mushrooms are freshly made.

How can I customize this recipe?

You can add fresh thyme, rosemary or a dash of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat. This is an easy recipe to customize allowing you to change the recipe up to your taste preference or based on the meal you're having. 

Can I use frozen mushrooms instead of fresh for Texas Roadhouse Sautéed Mushrooms?

I like to use fresh mushrooms as frozen mushrooms contain more water and may get a little watery. The key to using frozen mushrooms is to thaw them and then dry them off before putting them into your pan. Keep in mind, the texture may be a little different but they will still be incredibly flavorful. 

Can I use this mushroom recipe as a topping for other dishes?

Definitely! This recipe is a very versatile topping that can be added to many different dishes. You can use it to top steak, chicken breast, or burgers for extra flavor. It's also great on baked potatoes or mixed into scrambled eggs. 

How do I prevent the mushrooms from becoming overly watery during cooking?

To avoid having watery mushrooms, it's important to dry them off before cooking. You can use a clean kitchen towel or a paper towel to wipe them and remove any moisture. I also find that if you overcrowd the mushrooms in the pan, they will steam rather than sauté. You can cook them in two batches if necessary.

How do I store leftover Texas Roadhouse Sautéed Mushrooms?

To store leftover Texas Roadhouse Sautéed Mushrooms, let them cool and then place them into an airtight container. They can last up to about four days in the fridge. 

To reheat, place a skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally. The mushrooms may become a little softer than before, but their flavor should stay the same.
