Ingredients
- 1/3 lb fettuccine more if you like
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 large shallot minced
- 1 large clove of garlic minced
- 8 oz assorted mushrooms sliced
- 1/3 cup marsala wine
- 1/3 cup chicken stock
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1/2 tsp Wondra flour*
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- several sprigs of fresh thyme leaves stripped from the stalks
- salt and fresh cracked pepper
- chopped parsley
- Freshly grated Parmesan for garnish
Instructions
- In a heavy pot melt and butter and olive oil and saute the shallot and garlic for a few minutes.
- Add in the mushrooms and saute, stirring often, for about 5 to 8 minutes, until the mushrooms just tender. If the pot seems too dry, add a little more olive oil.
- Add the Marsala into the hot pot and let it evaporate for a minute, then add the chicken stock, thyme, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
- Let the sauce simmer and reduce for a few minutes. Sprinkle in a dash of Wondra flour and blend in.
- Add in the cream, and bring back to a simmer. Check for seasoning and set aside while you cook the fettuccine.
- When the fettuccine is just al dente, either add it to the sauce and toss well, or put it in a serving bowl and top with the sauce. Garnish with cheese and parsley.

Notes
- *Wondra flour is formulated to dissolve instantly in hot or cold liquids, no clumping. It's the best thing for those times when you just want to slightly thicken a sauce, especially at the last minute. All you do is sprinkle it in and stir.
