- 1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup finely chopped shallots
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 pounds assorted fresh wild mushrooms, cleaned and thickly sliced if large
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 1/2 cups dry white wine
- 3 cups chicken stock or canned low-sodium broth
- 2 1/2 pounds good-quality fresh or dried fettuccine
- 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
- 1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese shavings (about 1 1/2 ounces)
- Divide the butter between 2 large skillets and melt until foaming.
- Add half of the shallots to each skillet and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, until slightly softened, about 2 minutes.
- Add half of the garlic to each skillet and cook, stirring, for 1 minute longer.
- Add half the mushrooms to each skillet, season with salt and pepper and raise the heat to high.
- Cook, stirring, until the mushrooms have exuded their liquid and are lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the mushrooms to a large bowl.
- Pour the wine into 1 of the skillets and boil over high heat, stirring, until reduced to about 2 tablespoons, about 10 minutes.
- Add the chicken stock and boil until reduced by half, about 20 minutes.
- Return the mushrooms to the skillet, season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, bring a very large pot of water to a boil.
- Add salt, then add the fettuccine and cook until al dente.
- Drain the pasta and toss with the mushrooms and sauce.
