- 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

- Clean Mushrooms: Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel and pat them dry thoroughly to remove any dirt and ensure they crisp well in the air fryer.

- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 3 to 5 minutes to ensure it reaches the right temperature for even cooking.
- Arrange Mushrooms: Place the seasoned mushrooms in a single layer in the air fryer basket to allow hot air to circulate properly and crisp the mushrooms evenly.

- Garnish and Serve: Remove mushrooms from the air fryer and garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
