Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces fresh morel mushrooms cleaned and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small shallot minced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup bourbon
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced shallot and garlic, sautéing until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add the sliced morel mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they are tender and browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Carefully pour in the bourbon and let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off and the sauce to reduce slightly.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and Dijon mustard, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
