Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and foamy.
Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring frequently, for 5-7 minutes until itβs soft and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the sliced cremini and shiitake mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and their liquid has mostly evaporated.
Sprinkle the thyme leaves over the mushrooms and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute to release the aroma.
Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Add the vegetable stock to the skillet and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the ragout has thickened slightly.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Remove from heat.
Serve the mushroom ragout hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. It pairs beautifully with pasta, polenta, rice, or crusty bread.
