madbakerThis week's Resolution Recipe: Mushroom-Wine Sauce.
2 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp chopped parsley
1/2 clove garlic (Ha! I used... more.)
1 small onion, chopped (I used 1 medium shallot, chopped)
1 Tbsp flour
1 cup chicken broth (I used house-made)
1/8 tsp nutmeg
3/4 lb mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/4 cup dry sherry
In a saucepan, heat 1 Tbsp butter, add the parsley, garlic, and onion, and cook over medium heat three minutes. Stir in the flour. Gradually add the broth, stirring constantly. Add nutmeg.
In a skillet heat the remaining butter, add the mushrooms, and sauté five minutes. Combine with the sauce and simmer fifteen minutes. Add the wine and bring to a boil. Serve with roast meats or poultry.
What worked: We made a half batch, which was more than sufficient for the two of us. It was delicious and showy over a perfectly cooked medium-rare ribeye steak, with some truffles we brought back from Florence over the top.
What didn't: It needed pepper.
Will I make it again? Probably, although not that often.
