Number Of Ingredients 10

12 ounce(s) mushrooms finely chopped
1/4 cup(s) butter
12 ounce(s) mushrooms - portabello, shitake, oyster
1/2 cup(s) all purpose flour
2 cup(s) chicken stock
2/3 cup(s) milk
1 tablespoon(s) chopped fresh parsley

2/3 cup(s) half/half
- salt & pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Melt butter in large sauce pan
  • Gently cook mushrooms for 5 min.
  • Stir in flour (making a sort of mushroom roux)
  • Gradually stir in chicken stock and milk
  • Bring to a boil and then simmer 10 minutes
  • Add parsley and lemon juice
  • Season with salt and pepper then stir in half/half and reheat gently. Stirring often.
