I’m pretty passionate about porcini mushrooms. I grind the dried mushrooms and add them to practically everything: sauces, gravies, soups, stews, and seasoning blends. Basically to anything that can benefit from a boost of umami. Today’s dish combines porcini and shiitake mushrooms, gorgonzola, mushrooms and cream for an irresistibly delicious sauce. Serve it with your pasta of choice for an easy, quick dish that’s perfect for a busy weeknight and elegant enough to serve for guests! And for our shiitake, porcini and pasta lovers, you’ll also want to check out my Creamy Fettuccine with Shiitake and Porcini! Now, let’s get started on this yummy-licious recipe!
Porcini Mushroom Linguine with Chicken, Shiitakes and Gorgonzola
Melt the butter and olive oil in a skillet and brown the chicken.
Melt the remaining butter in the skillet, add the shiitake mushrooms and saute for about 5 minutes.
Add the onions and saute another 3 minutes.
Add the cream and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat and stir in the gorgonzola.
Return the chicken to the sauce and heat through.
Portion out the cooked pasta on four plates and divide the sauce on top of the pasta. Serve sprinkled with some fresh parsley. Enjoy!
