Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 450 grams Cremini or button mushrooms
• 2 medium, finely diced Shallots
• 3 cloves, minced Garlic
• 120 milliliters Dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc)
• 150 milliliters Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 30 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and slice them into 1/4-inch thick pieces. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and butter, letting the butter melt completely.

Step 3

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet in a single layer. Sauté for 5–7 minutes until the mushrooms are golden and have released their moisture.

Step 4

Stir in the diced shallots and minced garlic. Cook for 2 minutes until fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid burning the garlic.

Step 5

Pour in the white wine, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze any browned bits. Let the wine simmer for 2–3 minutes until it reduces by half.

Step 6

Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream, fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Let the sauce simmer gently for 3–4 minutes until it thickens slightly.

Step 7

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until it melts completely, creating a creamy and smooth sauce.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 9

Serve the mushrooms in creamy wine sauce immediately as a side dish or spooned over pasta, rice, or bread.
