Step-by-Step Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine for 1 minute less than the package instructions suggest for al dente. Just before draining, carefully scoop out 1 cup of the pasta cooking water and set it aside.

While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter and heat the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat.

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook, stirring regularly. Once they begin to release moisture and sweat, season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Continue cooking for about 4 to 5 minutes until the mushrooms are golden brown. Add the minced garlic and sauté until both the garlic and mushrooms are deeply golden and fragrant.

Carefully pour in the white wine (it will release a lot of steam). Stir and scrape the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits. Simmer rapidly until the wine has mostly evaporated and the sharp alcohol scent is gone.
