Milk-Based Mushroom Sauce
Ingredients
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh button mushrooms
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups 2% milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat; avoid using non-stick cookware. Lightly mist the skillet with cooking spray and add sliced mushrooms. Cover the skillet and cook, stirring periodically, until the mushrooms start to release their moisture. Introduce minced garlic into the skillet and stir well. Cover again and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released more moisture and garlic is lightly caramelized. Transfer the mushroom-garlic mixture, including its juices, to a small bowl and set it aside temporarily.
2
Use a paper towel to wipe the skillet clean of any burnt garlic residue. Melt butter in the skillet over medium-low heat until it begins to foam and bubble. Gradually add flour, whisking continuously to create a smooth paste. Allow the mixture to darken slightly before adding milk in small increments, whisking smoothly after each addition.
3
Return the mushroom-garlic mixture to the skillet; bring it to a very slow, gentle simmer and cook until the desired consistency is achieved. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
