Creamy Tuscan Marry Me Mushrooms

Step 1

Flavor Base: Heat 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, ½ tsp each salt, oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, smoked paprika, and ¼ tsp ground black pepper in a large saute pan or pot over medium heat until butter is melted, about 1 minute.

Step 2

Fillings: Add 16 oz button mushrooms, 10 oz cherry tomatoes, 4 cloves garlic, and ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes. Cook uncovered, stirring often, until mushrooms sweat out their moisture and excess liquid has evaporated, turning the tomatoes into a thick sauce, about 15 minutes.

Step 3

Broth: Stir in 1 cup vegetable broth and continue cooking until sauce thickens again, about 10 minutes.

Step 4

Finish: Remove from heat. Stir in 1 cup heavy cream, ½ cup grated parmesan, and 2 Tbsp fresh chopped basil. Serve warm with rice, pasta, or crusty bread.
