Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 8 ounces Cremini mushrooms
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 0.33 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Clean and thinly slice the cremini mushrooms. Mince the garlic cloves.
Step 2
In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.
Step 3
Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and sauté for 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and start to brown.
Step 4
Stir in the minced garlic and fresh thyme. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 5
Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir well to coat evenly. Let it cook for 1 minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Step 6
Pour in the beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and allow it to thicken slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 7
Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.
Step 8
Remove from heat and taste for seasoning, adjusting with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Step 9
Serve the mushroom sauce warm, spooned generously over grilled steaks or alongside as a dipping accompaniment.
