Creamy Mushroom Gnocchi Dream!
Savor this creamy gnocchi dream featuring tender mushrooms sautéed with garlic in a rich cream sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 16 ounces white button or baby bella mushrooms, cut into thin slices
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth (+ an additional 1/4 cup as needed)
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch dissolved in 1 tablespoon cold water
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
- two 16-ounce packages gnocchi, prepared according to package directions
Instructions
- Melt the butter over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms; sauté until golden. Once they’re golden, add salt – this will draw out some of the water. Cook the mushrooms down for 5-7 minutes so some of the water can evaporate. Add garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant.
- Add chicken broth, heavy cream, and fresh thyme sprigs to the pan. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 5-10 minutes.
- Stir in the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce. (This is a good time to boil your gnocchi if you haven’t already.)
- Remove thyme sprigs from the sauce. Add the Parmesan cheese and stir until melted and smooth.
- Add your cooked gnocchi to the sauce and gently stir to combine.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add additional broth if needed to keep the sauce nice and silky. Serve immediately.
