Ingredients
  

  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 1/4 pounds shiitake mushrooms, cleaned and woody stems removed (any type of mushroom will work)
  • 1/2 tsp table salt
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup vegetable broth
  • 4 small garlic cloves
  • 3 ounces goat cheese plain or herb
  • 1/2 tbsp chopped fresh thyme leaves

Instructions
 

  • Place a large stainless steel skillet or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Allow it to get hot before tossing in the butter and olive oil. Once melted, add the cleaned mushrooms to the skillet. Give them a quick stir and try to get them as flat as possible in the skillet.
  • Cook for 4 minutes, stir, cook for another 4 minutes, stir, then cook for 3 minutes before adding 1/2 a tsp of table salt and stiring agian. This allows the mushrooms to brown.
  • Add white wine to the pan, stir for about 20 seconds before adding the flour. Stir to coat.
  • Pour in the broth, and then add the minced garlic. Stir well and allow to simmer for 30 seconds before turning the heat to medium-low.
  • Crumble in the goat cheese. Stir until the goat cheese is fully melted. Turn off the heat and sprinkle in the fresh thyme. Serve immediately or see notes for storage and re-heating instructions.

Notes

Storage - Store any leftovers in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheating - Reheat any leftovers in a skillet on the stove over medium heat until heated through, about 5 minutes. Make sure to occasionally stir the mixture to evenly heat it and to prevent the sauce from burning.
