- Remove the mushrooms from the pan. Then in the same pan add the butter and the garlic and cook until the garlic is soft and translucent

Notes
For the deepest mushroom flavor, let the mushrooms cook undisturbed for a few minutes so they develop a golden-brown color before stirring. If the gravy becomes too thick, simply whisk in a little extra broth until you reach the consistency you like.
