Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 12 ounces mixed mushrooms (shiitake and oyster)
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 8 ounces fettuccine pasta
  • 1 bunch of swiss chard, removed from stems and torn (I used a mix of spinach and kale as well in the picture above)
  • 3 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken stock
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese

 

Directions

Heat a large pot over medium heat and add 4 tablespoons of the butter. Whisk often until the butter begins to bubble and brown. When the browning occurs, our the brown butter into a bowl and set aside.

Add the remaining butter to the pot over medium-low heat. Stir in all the mushrooms, stirring occasionally. Cook for about 8 minutes until the mushrooms soften.

Add in the pasta, swiss chard, stock, salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil. Cook for about 10 more minutes, stirring so the pasta cooks. Once the noodles have absorbed most of the stock (you can pour out a little extra if a lot is still left), stir in the brown butter and parmesan cheese.
