Directions
1. In a skillet, fry bacon pieces until crisp. Remove bacon bits and set aside. Discard the rendered bacon fat, but keep some in the bottom of the pan.
2. In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter and fry the garlic over medium heat, stirring frequently until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add in the mushrooms and cook until mushrooms begin to soften.
3. Pour in the cream, chicken broth and Parmesan; allow to simmer until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
4. Adjust seasoning with fresh cracked black pepper — bacon and parmesan should be salty enough for the dish. Garnish with crisp bacon, thyme, parsley, grated parmesan. Serve the creamy garlic parmesan mushrooms over grilled steak, burgers, cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, grilled vegetables, or as a side on its own. Enjoy!
