Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 450 grams Cremini or button mushrooms
- 2 medium, finely diced Shallots
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 120 milliliters Dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc)
- 150 milliliters Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 30 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh parsley
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and slice them into 1/4-inch thick pieces. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and butter, letting the butter melt completely.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet in a single layer. Sauté for 5–7 minutes until the mushrooms are golden and have released their moisture.
Stir in the diced shallots and minced garlic. Cook for 2 minutes until fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid burning the garlic.
Pour in the white wine, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze any browned bits. Let the wine simmer for 2–3 minutes until it reduces by half.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream, fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Let the sauce simmer gently for 3–4 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until it melts completely, creating a creamy and smooth sauce.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve the mushrooms in creamy wine sauce immediately as a side dish or spooned over pasta, rice, or bread.
