Follow The Directions

01

Step

3 mins

Render the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crisp and golden, approximately 3 minutes. This infuses the pan with its rich, smoky essence.

02

Step

5 mins

Introduce the diced onions to the rendered bacon fat, cooking until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Their sweetness will subtly complement the mushrooms.

03

Step

15 mins

Add the prepared chanterelle mushrooms to the pan, cover, and allow them to soften in their own juices, roughly 15 minutes. This gentle steaming intensifies their delicate flavor.

04

Step

1 mins

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the sour cream and flour until smooth. This prevents lumps and ensures a creamy consistency.

05

Step

1 mins

Gently fold the sour cream mixture into the mushroom and bacon mixture. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook until heated through, about 1 minute, being careful not to boil.

06

Step

At the very end, stir in the fresh parsley. Its verdant brightness will elevate the dish both visually and aromatically.

For an even richer flavor, consider using pancetta instead of bacon.
If fresh chanterelles are unavailable, substitute with another wild mushroom variety, such as cremini or oyster mushrooms.
Serve immediately over toasted baguette slices, grilled ciabatta, or creamy polenta.
