Indulge in a restaurant-quality, velvety mushroom sauce that brings warmth and comfort to your dinner table. This recipe features perfectly browned mushrooms cooked in a savory herb-infused cream sauce, thickened with high-quality Asiago and Parmesan cheeses. By using a splash of chicken broth instead of wine, we ensure a deep, meaty, and alcohol-free flavor profile that pairs beautifully with your favorite cheese or spinach ravioli for a quick and elegant weeknight meal.

  • Total Time: 25
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.25 cups half and half
  • 0.75 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried basil
  • 0.5 teaspoon mustard powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground sage
  • 12 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 0.5 cup chicken broth (for deglazing)
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup Asiago cheese, grated
  • 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 20 oz ravioli
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Combine half and half, 0.75 cup chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, and dry herbs in a bowl.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown mushrooms in two batches until golden; set aside.
  3. Over medium heat, add 0.5 cup chicken broth to the pan to scrape up flavor bits.
  4. Melt butter, add garlic, then whisk in flour for two minutes until light golden.
  5. Slowly pour in the cream mixture while whisking constantly; simmer until thickened.
  6. Stir in the cheeses until melted and smooth.
  7. Fold the browned mushrooms back into the sauce.
  8. Toss with cooked ravioli and serve garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • Ensure mushrooms are dry before browning to prevent steaming.
  • Deglaze the pan thoroughly to incorporate the flavorful browned bits.
  • Serve immediately as the sauce thickens upon cooling.
