How to Make Mushroom Cream Sauce

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium sauté pan over medium heat. Add 1 medium finely chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and 8 ounces of sliced cremini mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms release their moisture and are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Remove the garlic (optional, if you prefer a less garlicky sauce).
  4. Stir in 1/2 cup sour cream and 1/2 cup heavy cream. Reduce heat to low.
  5. Simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has slightly thickened. Do not boil.
  6. Season generously with salt and black pepper to taste.
  7. Serve immediately over your favorite baked, sautéed, or grilled chicken.
