Clean the mushrooms thoroughly by wiping them with a damp cloth or using a soft brush to remove any dirt; avoid immersing them in water.
If the mushrooms are large, cut them into halves or quarters. Leave smaller mushrooms whole.
Peel and finely slice the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and slightly golden.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the mushrooms to a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, white wine vinegar, garlic, oregano, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper.
Finely chop the parsley and thyme, then add them to the marinade mixture. Stir well.
Pour the herb marinade over the cooked mushrooms and toss until the mushrooms are evenly coated.
Allow the mushrooms to marinate for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator, stirring occasionally to distribute the marinade.
Before serving, bring the mushrooms to room temperature and garnish with additional fresh parsley, if desired.
