Description
This Mushroom Pasta with Creamy Garlic Pan Sauce is a comforting and easy dish perfect for busy weeknights, featuring sautรฉed mushrooms and garlic in a silky, indulgent sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 lb pasta (linguine or fettuccine)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin)
- 1.5 lbs fresh mushrooms (cremini or button, sliced)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 cup vegetable broth (low sodium)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley (chopped)
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Cook Pasta Al Dente: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 1 lb pasta and cook according to package directions (8-10 minutes). Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
- Sautรฉ Mushrooms And Garlic: While pasta cooks, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced mushrooms and cook until golden brown (5-7 minutes). Stir in minced garlic for the last minute until fragrant.
- Deglaze The Pan: Pour in 1 cup vegetable broth, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer and reduce slightly (1-2 minutes).
- Simmer Creamy Garlic Sauce: Reduce heat to low. Stir in 1 cup heavy cream and 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly (3-5 minutes).
- Combine And Serve: Add the drained pasta directly to the sauce in the skillet. Toss vigorously until evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving warm.
Notes
For dietary adjustments, use zucchini noodles for keto, cashew cream for vegan, or whole wheat pasta for diabetic-friendly options. Choose firm, fresh mushrooms. If sauce is too thick, add pasta water; if too thin, simmer longer. Enhance flavor with more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes.
