    shredding king oyster mushrooms
  • Place in a bowl, spray a little oil, some salt and pepper and toss until coated.
  • If using an air fryer, place the shreds in the tray making sure that they don't overlap. You may need to do this in several batches depending on the size of the tray.
    air fried oyster shreds
  • Air fry for 16-18 minutes. Taste and bake a little longer if you want them crispy.
  • If you are baking them, set the oven to 375F and bake for 15 minutes. Flip them and bake for another 5 minutes.
  • If you are pan frying them, set the pan on high heat, add a little oil. Cook the shreds in batched without crowding them too much to allow the release of moisture.
  • When the shreds are cooked and have shrunk a little, it is time to add the marinade and cook for a minute of two.
  • Serve on rice, pasta, sandwiches or tacos.
