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 / Directions:


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.
