Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons oil
1 small onion, sliced
1 pound mushrooms, sliced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons thyme, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
2 tablespoons flour (rice flour for gluten-free)
1/2 cup vegetable broth or chicken broth
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons heavy/whipping cream
1/4 cup parmigiano reggiano (parmesan), grated
salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 pounds asparagus, trimmed
1 tablespoon oil

Steps:

Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat-high, add the onions and mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms release their liquids and it's absorbed, about 10-15 minutes.
Add the garlic, thyme and flour and cook for a minute.
Add the broth and deglaze the pan.
Add the vinegar and cream, bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until it thickens, about 2 minutes, before mixing in the cheese removing from the heat.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Toss the asparagus spears in the oil, salt and pepper and grill over medium-high heat until crisp-tender and slightly charred.
Serve topped with the creamy balsamic mushroom sauce and enjoy!
