Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 small Shallots, finely chopped
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 250 grams Cremini mushrooms, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup Dry white wine
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1/2 cup Chicken or vegetable stock
• 1 teaspoon Thyme leaves, fresh
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is melted and starts to foam.

Step 2

Add the finely chopped shallots and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, being careful not to let it burn.

Step 4

Add the finely chopped cremini mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 6-8 minutes, stirring frequently, until most of the moisture has evaporated and the mushrooms are golden brown.

Step 5

Deglaze the pan with the dry white wine, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the wine has reduced by half.

Step 6

Lower the heat to medium-low and pour in the heavy cream and chicken or vegetable stock. Stir gently to combine.

Step 7

Add the fresh thyme leaves, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Let the sauce simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened to your desired consistency.

Step 8

Stir in the finely grated Parmesan cheese until it has melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.

Step 9

Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Serve warm and enjoy with fondue, grilled meats, pasta, or roasted vegetables.
