Directions

Prep 10 minCook 10 min

1
Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high until foaming. Add chopped mushrooms and shallots and sauté, stirring often, until the mushrooms release their liquid and begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
2
In a separate dry skillet over medium-high heat, toast the pine nuts, stirring frequently, until lightly golden and fragrant, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl to cool.
3
Season the mushroom mixture with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir in the minced garlic and white wine and cook until the wine mostly evaporates, about 1 minute. Scrape into a bowl and fold in the toasted pine nuts; let cool to room temperature.
4
Stir in the lemon juice, sour cream, and chopped parsley. Season to taste with additional salt, pepper, and a small pinch of cayenne. Cover and chill until cool.
5
Serve spooned onto butter lettuce leaves.
