Wine Soaked Mushrooms image

Mushrooms are sauteed with onions and garlic. Red wine and beef broth are added and the sauce is reduced down until there is almost no liquid left. Makes a great side dish to beef recipes...also goes great on top of steaks. Use a good quality red wine that you would actually drink.

Time 2h7m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound button mushrooms, sliced
2 medium onions, sliced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 (750 milliliter) bottle red wine
1 (14.5 ounce) can beef broth
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 pinch salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions; cook and stir until translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and thyme; cook and stir for a few minutes, then add the mushrooms. Cook for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid from the mushrooms evaporates.
  • Pour in the whole bottle of wine and the beef broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and stir in the sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is almost entirely gone, about 1 1/2 hours. Season with salt and pepper. Serve as a side, or topping for steaks or crostini.
