How To Make
- Wipe each mushroom with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt.
- Melt 2 tbsp of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook for 20 seconds.
- Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes while stirring frequently.
- Stir in the white wine, fresh garlic, red crushed pepper, and fresh thyme. Let the wine reduce by half. It should take about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the heavy cream and fresh parmesan cheese. Cook for 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens. Check for seasoning, garnish with chives, and enjoy!
Top Tips For The Perfect Mushrooms
- Avoid washing the mushrooms with water, as they will absorb the water like a sponge and won’t caramelize and crisp up while they cook.
- Use fresh garlic and freshly grated parmesan cheese for best results!
- Let the sauce thicken for at least 5 minutes! You want the sauce to be smooth and creamy.
- Mushrooms can be on the bland side so season generously with salt and pepper.
