Ingredients
  

  • ½ small onion diced
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 12 ounces mushrooms brown or white sliced
  • salt and ground pepper to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 sprigs fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ cup white wine
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons fresh parsley

Instructions
 

  • Saute onion in butter until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add mushrooms, salt, and pepper. Cook until mushrooms have released juices. Add garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add the wine to deglaze and loosen any bits off the pan and simmer a few minutes until the wine has almost evaporated.
  • Add the chicken broth and cream. Simmer 5 minutes or until reduced by half.
  • To thicken the sauce further, combine cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water (or broth) and mix well. Add cornstarch mixture into the broth a little bit at a time to reach desired consistency. You may not need all of the cornstarch mixture.
  • Let simmer 1 minute.
  • Season with parsley, salt and pepper to taste.
