Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 Tbsp Shallots, diced
  • 1 lb mushrooms, sliced
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper, freshly ground
  • 2 Tbsp garlic, diced
  • 2 Tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped, or other herb of choice
  • 4 Tbsp butter
  • 3 Tbsp dark red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot
  • 1 lb pasta, such as tortellini, ravioli, or fettucine
  • ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese, Optional

Instructions

Pasta:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a rapid boil. Cook the pasta, according to the directions on the package, until al dente.
  • Reserve about ¾ cup of the pasta cooking water and then drain the pasta. Set aside

Mushrooms:

  • In a large skillet, set over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Once the oil is hot and shimmering add shallots and cook about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally so the shallots don't burn.
  • Add the mushrooms, salt, and pepper. Shake the pan once and then cook without stirring for 4 minutes. The mushrooms will begin to carmelize. Stir the mushrooms and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add the garlic, rosemary and butter. Stir to combine and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the red wine and about ¼ cup of the pasta water. Cook about 2-minutes. Add an additional ¼ cup of pasta water and cook for 2 more minutes. If looser sauce is desired add the additional pasta water.
  • Add cooked pasta to the mushroom mixture and toss to combine.
  • Divide into individual bowls. Garnish with Parmesan cheese and a sprinkling of chopped rosemary, if desired.

Notes

If using the mushrooms without pasta, such as topping a steak, just skip adding the pasta water
