Texas Gulf Coast Fishing

Pontchartrain Sauce #1

Pontchartrain Sauce (1 serving)

Ingredients:
5 button mushrooms quartered
1/2 cup unsalted butter - cut in half
1 lemon
1/4 cup white wine
1 cup heavy cream (40% fat)
1/2 cup small shrimp or diced larger shrimp
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 bunch parsley chopped
1 bunch scallions chopped

Directions:
Heat pan to high heat. Add 1/2 of room temperature butter. Add mushrooms and sauté. The mushrooms will soak up all of the butter, so shake pan. Once mushrooms are brown, add wine to deglaze. Once wine separates, squeeze lemon and add cream. Reduce cream until thick. Add shrimp, parsley, and scallions. When shrimp is pink and cooked, add garlic and remaining butter. Take off stove, mix, and pour over fish.
