How to Make Ziti With Portabella Mushrooms And Goat Cheese Sauce
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

- Heat 4 tablespoons butter and 4 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon sugar. Sauté for 20 minutes.
- Add 2 shallots, minced. Sauté for 5 minutes, or until tender.
- Add 4 cloves garlic, minced, and 4 scallions, thinly sliced. Sauté for 2 minutes.
