Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 400 grams white or cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 150 milliliters heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 30 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 bread slices (sourdough or rustic bread)
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter and olive oil. Allow the butter to melt completely.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds, making sure it doesn’t burn.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and their liquid has evaporated.
Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the heavy cream, fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Simmer the mixture for 3-4 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts into the sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
While the mushroom mixture is cooking, toast the bread slices in a toaster or under a broiler until golden brown.
Once the toast is ready, spoon the creamed mushrooms generously over each slice.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
