Description
A rich and creamy mushroom sauce perfect for pasta or as a side dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 16 ounces mushrooms (baby bellas/large cremini work best)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup heavy/whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt & pepper (to taste)
- Freshly grated parmesan cheese (to taste)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, to taste)
Instructions
- Melt the butter and oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the mushrooms. Cook them for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Mushrooms should start to brown on the outside and shrink a little.
- Add the cream, lemon juice, garlic, and Italian seasoning to the pan. Cook for another 5 minutes or until the sauce has thickened a bit and the mushrooms are cooked through.
- Season with salt & pepper as needed, and grate some fresh parmesan and sprinkle fresh parsley over top if desired.
Notes
- This sauce pairs well with pasta, chicken, or as a topping for steak.
- For extra flavor, sauté some onions with the mushrooms.
