Creamy mushroom noodles are a comforting and delicious dish that combines the earthiness of mushrooms with the rich, creamy texture of a savory gravy and heavy cream. This dish is perfect for a cozy dinner and can be prepared quickly with just a handful of ingredients.
Instructions:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil.
- Add the rice noodles and cook according to the package instructions, usually 4-6 minutes, until they are tender.
- Drain and set aside.
- While the noodles are cooking, clean and slice the mushrooms.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add a little oil or butter (optional).
- Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are golden brown and softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Once the mushrooms are cooked, reduce the heat to low.
- Pour in the heavy whipping cream and stir well to combine.
- Add the chicken gravy and black pepper, stirring until everything is well incorporated.
- Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
- Add the cooked rice noodles to the skillet with the creamy mushroom sauce.
- Toss gently to ensure the noodles are well coated with the sauce.
- Sprinkle the freshly chopped parsley over the top of the noodles.
- Plate the creamy mushroom noodles and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Tips:
- Use fresh mushrooms for the best flavor. Button mushrooms or cremini work well, but feel free to experiment with other varieties.
- Make sure to cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions to ensure they are perfectly tender and not overcooked.
- For an added touch of freshness and a burst of color, garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley just before serving.
- To make the dish more protein-rich, consider adding some cooked chicken or tofu.
- If the sauce becomes too thick, you can thin it out with a bit of vegetable or chicken stock.
- Season judiciously with black pepper and taste before adding salt, as the chicken gravy may already contain salt.
With its rich and creamy sauce, tender mushrooms, and perfectly cooked rice noodles, this creamy mushroom noodle dish is sure to become a favorite in your household. It's a simple yet satisfying meal that's ideal for busy weeknights or a special weekend treat. Enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and textures with every bite!
