Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 g rigatoni pasta
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 200 g cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 150 g shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and sliced
- 150 g oyster mushrooms, torn into bite-sized pieces
- 120 ml dry white wine
- 240 ml heavy cream
- 120 ml chicken or vegetable stock
- 60 g Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- to taste salt
- to taste freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the rigatoni according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add all three types of mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, and oyster) to the skillet. Sauté for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and any liquid has evaporated.
Deglaze the skillet by adding the white wine. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken or vegetable stock. Stir well and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for 5 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the cooked rigatoni to the skillet, tossing gently to coat the pasta in the sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add reserved pasta water, a little at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Serve warm, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese and parsley if desired.
