Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cups Cremini mushrooms (sliced)
- 0.5 Yellow onion (finely diced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup Beef stock
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat the unsalted butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is fully melted and slightly foamy.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly caramelized.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced cremini mushrooms to the skillet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden-brown and softened.
Stir in the fresh thyme and Worcestershire sauce, ensuring the mushrooms are evenly coated.
Pour in the beef stock and allow it to simmer for 3-4 minutes, reducing slightly to concentrate the flavors.
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the mixture is creamy and slightly thickened, coating the back of a spoon.
Remove the skillet from heat and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
Serve the mushroom topper warm over steaks, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
