Best Quick And Easy Mushroom Alfredo Sauce Recipes

MUSHROOM ALFREDO PASTA

Steps:

• Heat a large frying pan over medium-low heat and add the oil and minced garlic to the warm pan. Saute the garlic until soft and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Boil salted water for pasta.
• Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan. Saute until the mushrooms begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add 1 tsp of salt to the mushrooms and saute for another minute.
• At this point add the pasta to the boiling water to cook.
• Add the butter to the pan with the mushrooms and saute until it melts. Once the butter melts pour in the heavy cream and let it simmer with the mushrooms for 4 minutes. Slowly mixing in the parmesan cheese and continuously stir until the cheese melts and mixes in.
• Reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water and drain the cooked pasta. Mix the pasta water and cooked pasta in with the sauce. Toss to combine and cook for another 2 minutes. Serve with fresh basil, parmesan cheese and truffle oil

MUSHROOM ALFREDO PASTA

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring 2-2.5 quarts/liters of water to a boil. Add 1/2 tablespoon salt, followed by the pasta. Cook until al dente (i.e., slightly firm to the bite, not crunchy nor soft). Drain well.
• As the pasta boils, make the sauce: In a large skillet (large enough to accommodate the pasta), melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium or medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté until tender, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and mushrooms, and cook until mushrooms are tender, about 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Add the rest of the butter and heavy cream, and bring just to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for several minutes, until sauce has thickened slightly. Stir in nutmeg. Add 1/4 cup parmesan, then more if desired. Adjust seasoning to taste. Stir in pasta and cook on very low heat, tossing to combine for 1 minute until warm.
• Serve immediately. Garnish with parsley or chives if desired.

CREAMY MUSHROOM ALFREDO SAUCE

Steps:

• If making millet, rinse and drain it, and add 2 cups of water for your 1 cup of millet. Sprinkle sea salt in the water, bring it to a boil and simmer on low for 20 minutes, or until dry and fluffy.
• Meanwhile, heat a pan to medium heat. Add the oil and the sliced mushroom tops. Reserve the stems for the sauce. Saute the mushrooms for a few minutes while you start on the sauce.
• Heat a medium sauce pot, add oil, onion and garlic. Stir to coat, and allow to cook for a few minutes until onions are translucent. Stir in the zucchini and mushroom stems and allow to saute for a few minutes until all the vegetables are starting to soften.
• The next part of this creamy mushroom sauce recipe is to go back to the mushrooms, sprinkle salt on them, and let cook a few more minutes.
• Add the salt, pepper, basil, nutmeg and optional nutritional yeast, and stir to coat the vegetables. Cook until the zucchini is fully softened.
• Go back to the mushrooms and when they are fully cooked pour the wine, water and optional lime juice in the pan to deglaze. Set aside until the sauce is finished.
• Once it is very soft, add the water, coconut milk and lime juice and let simmer for a couple of minutes. Lime juice makes this sauce very light and playful, so if you are looking for a heavier-tasting creamy sauce leave this out and use more coconut milk.
• Blend the vegetables in a blender or food processor until smooth. Stir in the sauteed mushrooms and serve over the fully cooked millet or other grain, garnished with your choice of fresh green herb.

ALFREDO SAUCE WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Saute the mushrooms with enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the skillet.
• Once the mushrooms are sauteed, set aside.
• In a 4-quart saucepan, melt the butter on medium-low to medium heat.
• After butter is melted, pour the cream (or half-half) and stir.
• Add the cooking wine, the cornstarch, and the cheeses. Continue to stir.
• While stirring the sauce, add the Italian seasoning and garlic powder. Let sauce cook for 5-10 minutes.
• When sauce is almost ready, add the sauteed mushrooms.
• Reduce heat to low/simmer for a couple of minutes. Make sure to stir so there is no sticking.
• After stirring, enjoy!
