Mushroom Stroganoff
(Lynda/LyndaMc992)
By: Culinary Café

3 lbs large Portobello mushrooms, wiped with a damp cloth (3 to 4)
1 TBS dry sherry
3 TBS olive oil, good quality
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 TBS vegetable oil
1 TBS unsalted butter
1/2 large yellow onion, peeled and thinly sliced
1 large clove garlic, peeled and chopped
1 lb mushrooms, (mixed button and crimini) wiped and sliced
1 pint sour cream
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
2 TBS Italian parsley, chopped

Slice the Portobello into 1/4-inch slices, then cut each slice into pieces about 2-1/2 inches long. Mix the sherry, 2 TBS of oil, salt, and pepper in a glass bowl and marinate the mushroom strips for about 30 minutes.
In a large skillet, heat one TBS of olive oil. Wipe off the marinating mushroom pieces and sauté in the oil until just tender. Remove to a side dish and reserve.

In the same skillet, heat the remaining oil and butter and sauté the onions and garlic until translucent. Add the sliced buttons mushrooms and continue cooking until they start to caramelize, stirring frequently. Season with salt and pepper.

Remove the skillet from the heat and blend in the sour cream. Reheat the mixture over low heat, being careful not to bring it to a boil. Add the sautéed portobellos and continue to heat over low. Taste for seasonings and adjust. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately. Serves 6.
