Ingredients

Scale

8 ounces mushrooms (sliced)
3 tablespoons butter
1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
½ cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Sauté the Mushrooms:
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are golden and tender.
Add the Garlic:
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Deglaze with Chicken Broth:
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes to allow the broth to reduce slightly.
Make the Creamy Sauce:
- Stir in the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Continue to simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens to a creamy consistency.
Serve:
- Once the sauce has thickened, taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Spoon the mushroom sauce over your cooked steak and serve immediately.

Notes

For an extra rich sauce, you can substitute half-and-half or even use full-fat milk instead of heavy cream, though it may be slightly less creamy.
If you prefer a more intense mushroom flavor, feel free to add extra mushrooms or use a combination of different mushroom varieties (such as cremini, shiitake, or portobello).
This sauce can also be served with chicken or pork for a versatile addition to various dishes.
