🍝 This recipe is quick to prepare, making it perfect for a satisfying weeknight dinner with fresh, wholesome ingredients.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

– 12 ounces spaghetti

– 2 tablespoons olive oil

– 1 pound cremini mushrooms, sliced

– 4 to 6 garlic cloves, chopped

– Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste

– 1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano cheese, plus extra for serving

– 2 to 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Instructions

1-First Step: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving some pasta water.

2-Second Step: Clean and slice the mushrooms evenly to ensure uniform cooking. Mince the garlic for aromatic flavor.

3-Third Step: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sautΓ© briefly until fragrant, about 1 minute.

4-Fourth Step: Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 6-8 minutes until mushrooms release moisture and turn golden brown. Season with salt and pepper.

5-Fifth Step: Cook the spaghetti in salted water according to package instructions. Reserve 2/3 cup of pasta water and drain the pasta. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then add sliced mushrooms and cook until tender and browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add chopped garlic along with salt and pepper, and cook for an additional minute to release flavors.

6-Sixth Step: Add the drained pasta to the skillet, along with the grated cheese and reserved pasta water. Toss everything well with tongs until a sauce forms and coats the pasta.

7-Seventh Step: Stir in fresh parsley and serve immediately. For the best results, use fresh mushrooms instead of canned for better flavor and texture.

Notes

πŸ’§ Reserve pasta water when cooking to help create a creamy, well-adhered sauce.
πŸ„ Use fresh, sliced mushrooms for the best flavor and texture.
🍴 Choose long pasta noodles like spaghetti, as they hold the sauce better than short pasta.
πŸ§€ Pecorino Romano cheese adds a robust flavor; substitute with Parmesan if needed.
❄️ Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days, or freeze for longer storage.
🚫 Avoid rinsing pasta after cooking to preserve starch that helps sauce cling.
