Instructions
- Step 1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 8 oz spaghetti and cook for 8-10 minutes until al dente, then drain and reserve 1/2 cup pasta water.
- Step 2: In a large skillet, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion (finely chopped) and cook for 5 minutes until softened and translucent.
- Step 3: Add 3 cloves garlic (minced) and 12 oz mushrooms (sliced) to the skillet. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are golden and release liquid.
- Step 4: Pour in 1/4 cup white wine and 1/4 cup vegetable broth. Add 2 tbsp fresh thyme, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes to reduce liquid slightly.
- Step 5: Add drained spaghetti and 1/2 cup reserved pasta water to the skillet. Toss until pasta is coated and sauce thickens, adding more pasta water if needed.
- Step 6: Stir in 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and 2 tbsp butter until melted. Cook for 1 minute more, then remove from heat.
