For a richer flavor, use a high-quality bourbon. Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the mushrooms; this will ensure they caramelize properly. Feel free to adjust the amount of brown sugar to suit your sweetness preference. This sauce can be made ahead of time and reheated gently over low heat.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a small bowl, whisk together the bourbon, soy sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, basil, rosemary, and pepper until well combined and the sugar is dissolved. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepHeat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of clarified butter. Once melted and shimmering, add 1/3 of the sliced mushrooms. Sauté until deeply browned and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove the browned mushrooms and set aside. Repeat with the remaining mushrooms, adding more butter as needed to keep the pan lubricated. (Cook time: 20-25 minutes)
03
StepAdd the sliced shallots to the skillet and sauté until softened and translucent, approximately 5 minutes. Return all the browned mushrooms to the skillet. (Cook time: 5 minutes)
04
StepPour the bourbon mixture into the skillet. Cook over medium heat, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until the sauce is slightly reduced, about 2-3 minutes. (Cook time: 2-3 minutes)
05
StepReduce the heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream and simmer gently until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt to taste. (Cook time: 3-5 minutes)
