I enjoy cooking and enjoy sharing some of my recipes that I think you might enjoy so if you are a mushroom lover this sauce is a knock out!!!
Mushroom Sauce
Makes 4½ cups
3½ cups chicken stock
¾ oz. dried porcini mushrooms
1 lb. small white button mushrooms sliced
1 lb. small crimini mushrooms sliced
1 lb. portobello mushrooms sliced
5 Tbsp. olive oil
8 cloves garlic
6 green onions sliced
1 cup white wine
½ cup heavy cream (optional)
In a saucepan, bring the stock to a boil over high heat. Add the porcini mushrooms and stir well. Cover, turn off heat, and let the mushrooms steep for 30 to 45 minutes. Extract the procini by straining the stock over a bowl. Set the stock aside.
Chop the porcini and mix with the other mushrooms.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil for 3 to 5 minutes over high heat, until sizzling hot. Add the mushrooms and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Add the garlic and onion and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring well as the garlic begins to brown. Add the wine and cook for 3 minutes, stirring well to dislodge any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Finally add the stock, and the heavy cream if desired, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 15 minutes.
If you want to thicken it more just make a small batch of roux and add it to it.
Use this sauce over pasta or meats its also great for Chicken Scaloppine
