Instructions:

Simmer red wine in a sauce pan with garlic and rosemary and reduce to half.  Once reduced, set aside and discard garlic and rosemary.  In a large pan, melt butter over medium heat, and sauté mushrooms.  Add breadcrumbs and reduced red wine, and mix until flavors are fully incorporated.  Continue to cook over a low heat until the desired consistency.  Use some water to help thin out sauce if necessary.  Add salt and pepper to taste.  Serve as a sauce over chicken, beef, or pork.

  • Fr Leo…

    Can you please specify the size of the bottle of wine? The recipe looks great, but, right now in my wine rack there are THREE different size bottles of red wine!

    MANY thanks!

  • Normal table wine size bottle, apx 750 mml. Not the “double bottle of wine” and definitely not the little dinky 4 bottles that come in a carry out box – unless you use all four of those. Cheers!
