Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 12 ounces cremini mushrooms
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Clean and slice the mushrooms, finely chop the onion, mince the garlic, and chop the parsley.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for about 8-10 minutes until the mushrooms are browned and any liquid released has evaporated.
Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir well to coat. Cook for another 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth, making sure to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Add the worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook, whisking occasionally, until the gravy thickens, about 10 minutes.
Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley.
Serve hot over your favorite dish.
