Ingredients:

1 small onion -- minced
1 clove garlic -- minced
10 ounces small mushrooms -- thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh parsley -- chopped
1 tablespoon flour
6 tablespoons chicken broth or stock
1 teaspoon salt and black pepper -- to taste
1 package choice of pasta and amount desired
1 tablespoon butter
 

Preparation:

Peel and mince onion and garlic. Wipe mushrooms with a damp paper towel or cloth, trim base of stems, and cut caps and stems into thin slices. Heat the butter and olive oil in a saucepan and cook the onion, garlic, and parsley over low heat until soft. Sprinkle in the flour, then stir in the mushrooms, 4 tablespoons of the broth, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer until the mushrooms are soft. There should be enough liquid to make a slightly thickened sauce, but if there is not enough, add the remaining 2 tablespoons broth. Keep the sauce warm. Cook desired amount of pasta in salted water, drain and turn into a warmed bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and toss to coat the strands with butter. Spoon the sauce on top and toss again. Serve as a first course.
