  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream

Instructions

  • Heat butter in a large skillet set over medium-high heat.
    5 tablespoons salted butter
  • Add mushrooms and stir to coat in the butter. Cook on medium-high for 2-3 minutes, stirring often. While cooking, season with salt and pepper to taste (a little salt goes a long way since we are using salted butter and adding parm later).

  • Once browned and slightly seared, add the white wine and stir to coat. Add the garlic and parsley and continue stirring/tossing as you cook.
    2 tablespoons white wine, 2 teaspoons minced garlic, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
  • Cook for 1-2 minutes, until garlic is fragrant.
  • Pour in the heavy cream and add in the grated Parmesan cheese. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer for 2-4 minutes, or until sauce is reduced a bit. Taste the sauce and add more salt/pepper if needed.
    2 tablespoons heavy cream, 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

Notes

  • White button mushrooms are the best choice for this dish - keep them whole and they soak up all the flavor.
  • If you don't want to use white wine in the sauce, you can sub this with vegetable or chicken broth - I suggest you use a low sodium variety.
  • Serve immediately with a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
Storage: Store creamy garlic butter mushrooms in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
