I got SO many DMs asking for my super easy 15-minute Butter Mushroom Rice recipe, so here it is!

Buttery, savory, and delicious 15 Minute Butter Mushroom Rice is one of my go-to recipes to make when I am craving something comforting.

Plus, the best part is that this butter mushroom rice recipe is also a ONE-POT DINNER recipe, so quick, delicious, and doesn’t require alot of dishes.

If you are a mushroom lover like me, you need to try this recipe.

This Butter Mushroom Rice will be your go-to recipe if you love mushrooms like me.

You can customize the mushroom-based on what is in season and what you have at home.

My go-to choices are oyster mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and shemiji mushrooms.

Shiitake mushroom is the most flavorful mushroom and provides a “meaty” texture. If you are not vegetarian, you can also add some crispy bacon. 

The secret ingredient that makes this butter mushroom rice extra special is dashi powder.

Dashi powder provides alot of umami flavor and instantly transforms the dish.

A little goes a long way, and it is utilized in many recipes on my blog.

I like to use instant Dashi Powder, which you can purchase on Amazon or any Asian grocery store.

For vegetarians, vegetarian dashi powder is available made from Kombu, or you can also swap it for mushroom powder.
