Ingredients
12 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 ounces dried fettuccine pasta, broken in half
3 cups vegetable broth
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large deep skillet or pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 6-7 minutes until they release their moisture and start to brown.
Stir in the minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper; cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the broken fettuccine pasta to the pot and pour in the vegetable broth.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes until the pasta is cooked and most of the liquid is absorbed.
Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and unsalted butter until the sauce is creamy and well combined.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until heated through and slightly thickened.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
