Heat oil in a pan. Sauté the shiitake mushrooms, gill side down, over medium heat for 3 minutes.
Flip the mushrooms, cover the pan, and cook for another 3 minutes.
Turn off the heat and transfer the mushrooms to a plate, being careful not to spill their juices. Drizzle a few drops of soy sauce or ponzu sauce over each mushroom.
