Ingredients

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 ½ ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¾ cup half-and-half
1 tablespoon soy sauce
¼ teaspoon salt, or as needed

Steps:

Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
