Never run mushrooms directly under water; they will absorb water like a sponge, and your saute will be far too soggy.
Instead, get a paper towel slightly damp, and using it, wipe mushrooms down. Slice the mushrooms.
Preheat a large skillet to medium high heat. (The larger the saucepan the better -- mushrooms need space to brown. Despite my photograph, they should not be overlapping if you can avoid it.) Add oil. Wait a minute or two for it to come up to medium-high heat, and add butter, then mushrooms immediately. Brown on both sides, and take off of heat. Add salt and pepper to taste; serve immediately.
