Ingredients for Beefy Steakhouse Mushrooms

  • Button Mushrooms
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup French onion soup (canned or homemade)
  • 4 tablespoons margarine
  • Red Wine

How to Make Beefy Steakhouse Mushrooms

  1. Gently wash 1 pound of cremini mushrooms and 1/2 pound of shiitake mushrooms and drain thoroughly.
  2. In a large Dutch oven, combine the mushrooms with 1 cup of beef broth. Cook over medium heat until the mushrooms have released their moisture and begun to brown, about 10-15 minutes.
  3. Add an additional 1 cup of beef broth and 1 cup of French onion soup. Stir well to combine.
  4. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the mushrooms are incredibly tender.
  5. Stir in 1/2 cup of dry red wine (such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot). Continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 30 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced by about two-thirds.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in 4 tablespoons of margarine. Keep warm until ready to serve.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
