Ingredients:
- 8 ounces of pasta, any shape you prefer
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1/2 cup of diced onion
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms
- 1/4 cup of chicken or vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, and basil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Start by cooking the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and lightly browned.
Next, add the chicken or vegetable broth, heavy cream, and lemon juice to the skillet with the mushrooms. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat it evenly with the creamy mushroom sauce. Stir in the chopped fresh herbs and season with salt and pepper to taste.
That's it! Serve your creamy lemon and herb mushroom pasta hot and enjoy.
