Ingredients:
- 1 lb (450g) fresh mushrooms, cleaned and halved
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup (120ml) chicken or vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
- 1/2 cup (50g) grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Sauté Mushrooms: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and become golden brown.
- Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Deglaze with Broth: Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any flavorful bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Create Creamy Sauce: Lower the heat and add the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir well until the cheese is melted and the sauce thickens to your liking.
- Final Touch: Adjust the seasoning if needed and let it simmer for an extra couple of minutes to let the flavors meld. Garnish with fresh parsley.
- Serve: Plate up your Garlic Parmesan Mushrooms as a side dish or over pasta, rice, or crusty bread. Don’t forget to take a drool-worthy picture before you devour this creamy, savory masterpiece!
