Garlic Mushroom Pasta Recipe image

This is hands-down the best rich and velvety mushroom pasta recipe without cream. Loads of mushrooms, garlic, shallots, and a little parmesan, tossed with perfectly cooked pasta, and a lighter silky-smooth sauce!

Provided by Suzy Karadsheh

Categories     Dinner

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 ounces dry pasta (I used Toscani-shaped pasta)
Kosher salt
1/3 cup extra virgin olive
1 tablespoon butter
2 shallots (minced)
5 garlic cloves (minced)
8 ounces Baby Bella Mushrooms (sliced)
8 ounces white mushrooms (sliced)
8 ounces portabella mushrooms (roughly chopped)
black pepper
1 teaspoon rosemary
3 tablespoons of tomato paste
¼ cup merlot wine
½ cup of grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (Parmesan)
½ cup packed parsley
1/3 cup chopped walnuts
Red pepper flakes to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta to al dante in boiling salted water according to box instructions. Keep 1 cup of the pasta cooking water then drain the pasta.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive and butter over medium-high heat, add the shallots and garlic and cook, tossing regularly for 2 to 3 minutes (manage the heat so that the garlic does not burn).
  • Add all the mushrooms and toss them around in the pan for a couple of minutes, adding another drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Season with a good pinch of kosher salt, black pepper and the rosemary. Cook the mushrooms for about 7 to 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until they turn color and release their juices.
  • Add the tomato paste, wine and about ½ to 3/4 cup of the pasta cooking water. Cook over medium heat for about 4 to 5 minutes (this becomes your mushroom pasta sauce).
  • Add the cooked pasta to the mushroom sauce. Toss to combine. If needed add a little bit more of the pasta cooking water.
  • Stir in Parmesan cheese and finish with a sprinkle of parsley, walnuts and red pepper flakes. Serve immediately!

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots
2 cups thinly sliced mushrooms
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 pound sea or bay scallops
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup milk
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
Pinch cayenne

Steps:

  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a saucepan and add the shallots. Cook briefly, stirring, and add the mushrooms. Cook until wilted and add the salt, pepper, and wine. Add the scallops and bring to the boil. Cook until all the scallops are heated through, stirring gently as necessary. Take care not to let the scallops overcook or they will toughen. Using a slotted spoon, remove and set aside the scallops and mushrooms. Reserve the liquid. There should be about 3/4 cup of liquid. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan and add the flour, stirring rapidly with a wire whisk. When blended add the reserved liquid, stirring until thickened and smooth. Add the milk and 1 cup of the cream. Cook for about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste and a pinch of cayenne. Whip the remaining 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Fold it into the sauce. Use 6 individual scallop shells or ramekins. Spoon equal portions of the scallops and mushrooms into each shell. Spoon the sauce over the scallop mixture. Preheat the broiler to high. Place the filled shells under the broiler about 6 inches from the source of heat and bake until a nice brown glaze forms on top. As the scallops broil, turn shells occasionally for even browning, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your sauce comes together quickly and smoothly.
  • Use Fresh Mushrooms: Fresh mushrooms will give your sauce the best flavor. If you can't find fresh mushrooms, you can use dried mushrooms, but be sure to rehydrate them according to the package directions before using.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the mushrooms, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will result in a watery sauce.
  • Use a Heavy-Bottomed Pan: A heavy-bottomed pan will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the sauce from scorching.
  • Simmer the Sauce: Once the sauce has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 15 minutes. This will help to develop the flavors and thicken the sauce.
  • Season to Taste: Before serving, taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.

Conclusion:

This mushroom cream sauce with shallots is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for pasta, chicken, fish, or vegetables.
