Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces cheese tortellini fresh or frozen
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 8 ounces mushrooms sliced (such as cremini or button)
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

  1. Cook the tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until they are golden brown and tender.
  3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet and gently toss to coat in the creamy sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  6. Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley.
