Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 12 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 0.5 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup chicken or vegetable stock
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter with the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the finely diced onion to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced cremini mushrooms. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and their moisture has evaporated.
Deglaze the pan by pouring in the dry white wine. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan and let the wine cook down for 2-3 minutes until mostly evaporated.
Lower the heat to medium and stir in the heavy cream and chicken or vegetable stock. Simmer gently for 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Add the fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
If desired, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and fully incorporated.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately over your favorite dish.
