Creamy Garlic Mushrooms with Bacon
These creamy garlic mushrooms are naturally keto-friendly and full of bold umami flavors - perfect for a holiday side or easy dinner.
Ingredients
- 4 slices bacon diced
- 1/2 sweet onion diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced or crushed
- 16 oz whole white mushrooms
- 1/2 cup vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp worcestershire
- 1 tsp arrowroot powder or flour if not following keto
- 1/4 cup pecorino romano cheese
- pinch of salt and pepper
- fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add the diced bacon. Cook for about 3-5 minute until cooked through and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon from the pain, leaving the grease inside the pan.
- Add the onion to the pan and saute for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Add the garlic and saute for another minute.
- Add the mushrooms and vegetable broth. Cover and let steam for about 10 minutes, stirring a few times between. After the 10 minutes are up, check to see if the mushrooms are cooked through. If they aren’t steam them for a few more minutes.
- Once cooked through, remove the lid and continue to cook to reduce a bit of the liquid.
- Add the heavy cream, worcestershire, and arrowroot powder. Stir until combined and simmering. The sauce should thicken in a couple minutes.
- Stir in the pecorino romano cheese and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Stir in the cooked bacon until incorporated.
- Serve garnished with fresh parsley and fresh ground pepper if desired.
