This Creamy Mushroom Sauce is great served with steaks, meatballs, chicken, pork, and vegetables. Less than 30 minutes to prepare.
We all prepare a variety of foods in our kitchen and always need a sauce or dressing to go with it. That is why it is important to have an all-purpose, go-to sauce that is great with just about anything in your cooking repertoire. Over the years I have tried all kinds of sauces and this Creamy Mushroom Sauce is one that I fall back on time and time again. I think you will too once you try it.
Less Than 30 Minutes to Prepare
Except for the mushrooms, this sauce uses mostly pantry ingredients and refrigerator staples like butter and milk. You can use either fresh or dried parsley or any herb of your choice. Best of all, it takes less than 30 minutes to prepare. Can’t beat that!
Also, if you find the sliced mushrooms a little chunky, you can always dice or chop up the mushrooms instead. The sauce will taste just as awesome.
Versatile Creamy Mushroom Sauce
I have served this versatile sauce with a variety of foods and it works. It is great on meatballs, steamed vegetables, and potatoes. It is also delicious on pasta.
On Valentine’s Day, I used the sauce on these Pan Seared Oven Roasted Steaks and Grilled/Broiled Lobsters Tails and it was perfect. Dinner was so, so good. I hope you will give it a try soon.
