Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 ounces white mushrooms, whole or sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium-sized skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter with olive oil.
- Add the mushrooms and garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender and slightly golden.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Stir in heavy cream, parmesan cheese, cream cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Mix continuously until the sauce becomes smooth, creamy, and starts to bubble.
- Remove from heat. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use freshly grated parmesan for the best texture and flavor.
- Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure proper browning of mushrooms.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Reheat over low heat and add a splash of cream if the sauce thickens too much.
- For a vegan option, substitute dairy with plant-based alternatives and use nutritional yeast instead of parmesan.
