Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion (one small)
- 2 to 3 garlic cloves, minced, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (or to taste, rubbed between fingers to release flavors)
- 2 cups fresh sliced mushrooms
- 1 pound uncooked fresh medium shrimp
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons white wine (optional I do suggest to add)
- 1 cup heavy (35%) whipping cream, unwhipped
- 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt or use white salt
- Fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- Hot sauce ( optional, or use cayenne pepper)
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
How to Make
-
Step 1: Melt butter in a medium saucepan; add in onions, garlic and dried thyme and saute for about 3 minutes or until softened. Add in sliced mushrooms and cook until until they release their moisture. Add in shrimp and cook until the shrimp is no longer pink; remove only the shrimp to a bowl (leave the onion/mushroom mixture in the saucepan).
-
Step 2: Reduce heat to medium-low and add in flour; whisk for 1 minute (you might need to add in a couple tablespoons more butter). Slowly add in broth, wine (if using) and whipping cream; cook over medium-low heat stirring or whisking constantly until bubbly and thickened (about 5 minutes).
-
Step 3: Season with seasoned salt or white salt, black pepper and hot sauce or cayenne (if using) to taste. Add the shrimp back into the sauce and then mix in the Parmesan cheese; simmer for 5 minutes over low heat.
