Creamy Chanterelle Sauce Recipe: This Fabulous Mushroom Sauce Recipe Cooks in 10 Minutes Sauces/Condiments French Recipes Side Dishes Vegetables

Chanterelles are a type of wild mushroom. The popular funnel-shaped mushroom is most productive in fall and winter, but you can find them in some stores year-round. You can eat chanterelles raw, but cooking the mushrooms really brings out their flavor. This creamy chanterelle mushroom sauce is one of the most popular ways to use the mushroom.

The easy chanterelle sauce is made with fresh chanterelles, clarified butter (you could use regular butter), onion, garlic, heavy cream, chicken or vegetable broth, Worcestershire sauce and parsley. A little flour is whisked into the sauce to help thicken it. The result is an amazing mushroom sauce that you can use in so many different ways.

Ladle this chanterelle sauce over fresh pasta, polenta, mashed potatoes, gnocchi, grilled steak or chicken, or serve as a side dish in a small bowl with your favorite protein. If you can't find chanterelles, you could use button mushrooms or your favorite wild mushrooms instead.
