Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced and ends trimmed (any mix of mushrooms you like)
  • 2 shallots, thin sliced
  • 1/3 cup marsala (use the real stuff; not, the cooking wine)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • Pinch fresh rosemary, chopped
  • Kosher or sea salt, to taste
  • Fresh ground black pepper, to taste
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Mushrooms ... Note: I like to use a mix of cremini, white or button; and sometimes shitaki mushrooms. Make sure to trim the mushroom stems on the cremini, white or button mushrooms; but, the stems of the shitaki mushrooms are tough. So make sure to remove them. Save them in a baggie and freeze ... They can used for stock.

  • Step 2: Saute ... Add the mushrooms to a dry nonstick pan on medium high heat. Season lightly with salt and pepper; then, continue to cook 4-5 minutes until the liquid from the mushrooms start to reduce. Then, cook another couple of minutes on medium high to high heat, until the mushrooms are lightly golden brown.

  • Step 3: Finish ... Add the butter, marsala, and season again with salt and a pinch of pepper. Bring to a light boil and cook until the liquid has reduced. Just a minute or two.

  • Step 4: Finish ... Add the fresh herbs, stir; and, remove from the heat.

  • Step 5: Serve ... As I said. These are good over your favorite chicken, steak, pork, etc; or as a side dish. They are also wonderful with scrambled eggs; or a topping for a baked potato. Use your imagination. ENJOY!
