Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 sprig marjoram, plus more for garnish
  • 1/2 pound assorted wild mushrooms (golden chanterelle, shiitake, cremini, oyster, porcini, etc.), trimmed and sliced
  • 1 cup mushroom stock, recipe follows
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pound bucatini
  • Grated Parmesan

Directions

In a large stock pot, bring salted water to a boil.

In a large saute pan, over high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and saute for 1 minute, just until beginning to turn translucent. Add the marjoram and saute 1 more minute. Add the mushrooms and saute until they begin to brown and release their liquid, about 5 minutes. Add the mushroom stock and reduce 5 minutes. Add the cream and reduce about 5 minutes, or until the sauce begins to thicken. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.

Cook pasta until al dente. Drain and quickly toss with mushroom sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Divide onto serving plates and serve immediately garnished with marjoram sprigs.

Mushroom Stock:

2 cups chicken stock

1/2 cup mushroom trimmings, stems, or pieces

Combine the chicken stock and mushrooms in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Strain.

    Great pasta recipe

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I made this for dinner tonight and it was excellent, I cut the recipe in half, since my husband and I are empty nesters. ... There is still a good amount left over and I'll have it Thursday for dinner, because my husband is flying out of town that day. I loved the mushroom broth and I think it is a necessary part of the recipe, I didn't have the marjoran so I used fresh parsley, it was still good. I know I will make this many times in the future.Read more

    So easy and can be made with 1lb of mushrooms. I added extra garlic, used beef stock, shallots and penne as that's what I... had. Next time, I will use rosemary and roasted garlic. Yum!Read more
