Ingredients

  • 1 lb mushrooms (white button or cremini), cleaned and trimmed
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel and trim stems if necessary.
  2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms and sauté until golden and tender, about 6–8 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
  4. Pour in heavy cream, bring to a gentle simmer, and stir.
  5. Stir in Parmesan cheese until sauce thickens and becomes creamy.
  6. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Garnish with parsley if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a splash of white wine before the cream.
  • Use half-and-half instead of cream for a lighter version.
  • Great as a side, or served over pasta, steak, chicken, or toast.
  • Add spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, or red pepper flakes for variation.
