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