Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 16 ounces Cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 8 ounces Shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and sliced
• 1 teaspoon Thyme leaves, fresh
• 0.5 cups Dry white wine
• 1 cups Vegetable stock
• 0.25 cups Heavy cream
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly ground
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and foamy.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring frequently, for 5-7 minutes until it’s soft and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the sliced cremini and shiitake mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and their liquid has mostly evaporated.

Step 5

Sprinkle the thyme leaves over the mushrooms and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute to release the aroma.

Step 6

Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.

Step 7

Add the vegetable stock to the skillet and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 8

Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the ragout has thickened slightly.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Remove from heat.

Step 10

Serve the mushroom ragout hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. It pairs beautifully with pasta, polenta, rice, or crusty bread.
