Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ (16 ounce) package orecchiette pasta
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pinch salt
1 medium white onion, finely chopped
2 (8 ounce) packages sliced fresh mushrooms
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh sage, cut into thin strips
½ cup vermouth
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in orecchiette and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Reserve 2/3 cup pasta water prior to draining pasta.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons butter, olive oil, and a pinch of salt in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until soft but not brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter and mushrooms; cook until tender, 5 to 7 minutes more. Add garlic and sage and cook until soft, about 2 minutes. Pour in vermouth; bring to a boil, then reduce to heat to low. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Mix in cooked pasta and reserved pasta water. Toss pasta to coat well. Season with salt and pepper. Top with parsley and serve.

The mushrooms were a bit too rubbery for my liking.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more garlic and maybe some red pepper flakes. However, the orecchiette was cooked perfectly and the mushrooms were nice and tender.

This orecchiette with mushrooms recipe is a winner! The combination of flavors is exquisite and the texture is perfect. I especially love the addition of the crispy breadcrumbs, which add a nice crunch to the dish. I've made this recipe several times
