You. may think that French bistro flavor means a long cook with complicated instructions and hard to find ingredients. It doesn’t. This recipe is simply mushrooms in butter, with a red wine sauce. It’s quick, simple, and can make you look like a master chef.
The trick is to use a Bordeaux red wine, which gives it a splash of authenticity to its rich buttery flavor. Plus, don’t forget to serve it with bread for dipping (as that sauce will get mopped up).
