How to Make Jaeger Schnitzel Spaetzle Sauce

  1. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, finely chopped, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add 1 pound cremini mushrooms, sliced, and cook until browned and tender, about 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Stir in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  4. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of beef broth, ensuring no lumps form. Bring to a simmer.
  5. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 cup of sour cream, 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon of dried thyme. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until sauce has thickened slightly.
  6. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley just before serving.
  7. Serve hot over your favorite spaetzle. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.
