Once bacon is cool enough to handle, roughly chop.

Meanwhile, heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes.

Melt 1 TBSP butter in pan used for mushrooms and onion over medium heat. (For 4 servings, work in batches or use a second pan, using 1 TBSP butter for each batch.)
