Frequently Asked Questions
What to serve these creamy mushrooms?
This is a great main dish, but you can pair this with garlic bread. For a low-carb dinner, enjoy this amazing dish with buttery cauliflower mash. This also goes perfectly with steak, salmon, or chicken.
How to clean mushrooms?
Use a damp towel to wipe the mushrooms and remove the loose dirt and debris. Make sure to do this for each piece of mushroom. Under cold water, lightly rinse the mushrooms and pat dry with a paper towel. DO NOT soak them in water because they won’t brown when cooking.
When cooking, make sure to brown and nicely crisp the mushrooms before adding the cream sauce. This is where all the amazing flavors of the creamy garlic mushrooms begin!
Tips:
- To ensure even cooking, find mushrooms that are about the same size.
- For this recipe, I use the brown type of mushrooms (Cremini or Swiss). You are welcome to use the type you are familiar with!
- To prevent the mushrooms from getting slimy, make sure to rinse and dry them just before cooking.

Creamy Garlic Mushrooms And Bacon
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 8 oz. 250 grams bacon, cut into strips
- 26 oz. 750 grams brown mushrooms washed (pat dry with a paper towel)
- 1/4 c. dry white wine or chicken broth/stock
- 1 1/2 c. 400 ml heavy cream, (thickened cream or evaporated milk)
- 6 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh chopped parsley
- 1 tsp fresh chopped thyme
- 1/2 c. fresh shredded or grated mozzarella
- 1/4 c. fresh shredded or grated parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to season
Instructions
- In a large oven-safe skillet, fry the bacon on medium heat until crispy. To a paper towel-lined plate, transfer the bacon using a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Melt the butter in the same pan. Then, add the mushrooms. Drizzle the mushrooms with oil and stir well, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Cook for additional 2 to 3 minutes until the mushrooms are light brown and release their juices.
- Add the wine or broth and cook for another 2 minutes until reduced, stirring often.
- At this point, preheat the broiler or oven grill.
- To the pan, stir in the garlic and cook for a minute more until aromatic. Add the cream along with the herbs. Adjust the heat to low. Let the mixture simmer for 4 to 5 minutes until tender and the sauce has slightly thickened. To taste, season with salt and pepper.
- Return the bacon to the pan and mix well so the flavors mend together. On top, sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
- Put in the broiler for about 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese has melted and bubbly and the mushrooms are done.
- Enjoy the creamy garlic mushrooms and bacon warm.
