Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 10 servings

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • ½ tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 (10 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper

  • ¼ cup white wine

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • ½ cup chicken or vegetable broth

  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

Directions

  1. Heat butter and oil in a skillet over medium heat until butter is melted; add mushrooms and cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, salt, and pepper; cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour white wine into the pan and simmer until wine is mostly evaporated, scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, about 1 minute.

  2. Stir in cream, chicken broth, and cheese; reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until cheese has melted and sauce has thickened but doesn't boil, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in thyme and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if needed.

Recipe Tips

You can use rosé for white wine if preferred.

You can use 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme for fresh.
