Creamy 'Shrooms Pasta image

This pasta is my go-to, quick, easy and elegant pasta dish that is company worthy, but still easy enough to put together on a weeknight. All the ingredients are pantry staples and I love being able to wow guests with creamy and comforting pasta that I can whip up in a moment's notice.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Good salt, such as Himalayan pink, gray sea salt, Maldon or kosher
1 pound pasta of choice (I like bucatini)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
One 8-ounce package sliced mixed mushrooms or baby portabellas
Fresh coarsely ground black pepper
1 large shallot, finely sliced
1 clove garlic, minced, optional
Juice of 1 lemon or 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions until al dente. Do not drain.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms in an even layer and season with salt and pepper. Allow the shrooms to brown on one side, 1 to 2 minutes, then flip to crisp the other side, 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove to a plate and set aside.
  • Add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet and add the shallots and garlic if using. Season with salt and pepper and cook, slightly caramelizing to light golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the lemon juice and scrape up the brown bits (suc) on the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Return the mushrooms to the skillet, add the cream and bring to a simmer.
  • Turn off the heat and stir in the cheese. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the cooked pasta from the water and add it directly to the skillet. Toss to coat, adding pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
  • Season generously with freshly cracked pepper. Serve sprinkled with more cheese and drizzled with the remaining tablespoon oil and enjoy!

I thought this pasta dish was just okay. The sauce was a bit too heavy for my taste, and the mushrooms were not very flavorful. I probably won't make this recipe again.

This pasta dish was a bit bland for my taste. The sauce was not very flavorful, and the mushrooms were a bit tough. I would not recommend this recipe.
