Campanelle with Creamy Mushroom Sauce
Description
This Campanelle with Creamy Mushroom Sauce recipe starts by cooking garlic and sliced mushrooms in olive oil until tender. White wine or chicken broth is added and reduced to concentrate flavor before simmering with heavy cream to form a rich base. The sauce is finished by melting in shredded Havarti or mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses along with lemon zest, adding smoothness and a hint of citrus character.
The campanelle pasta is cooked according to package instructions without rinsing, allowing the starch to help thicken and cling to the sauce. Combining the pasta with the cheesy mushroom sauce results in a luscious dish where the tender mushrooms provide an earthy depth balanced by creamy, cheesy textures.
Fresh parsley and additional Parmesan cheese can be sprinkled on top before serving for herbal freshness and extra savory notes. This dish works well as a satisfying main course or paired with a light salad for a rounded meal.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces campanelle pasta
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 12 ounces mushrooms sliced
- ¼ cup white wine or chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup havarti cheese or mozzarella, shredded
- 3 tablespoons Parmesan Cheese plus more for topping, shredded
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon parsley optional, chopped, fresh
Instructions
- Heat olive oil over medium high heat and cook garlic and mushrooms until mushrooms are tender.
- Stir in wine or broth and cook until wine has almost evaporated. Add heavy cream and simmer 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions, do not rinse.
- Remove from heat and stir in mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese and lemon zest until smooth.
- Toss with pasta. Top with parsley and extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
Notes
- Do not rinse the pasta after cooking; the starch helps thicken the sauce and improve coating.
- Any medium pasta like penne or rotini can be used as alternatives to campanelle.
