The Best Creamy Mushroom Sauce for Steaks

This 5 ingredient Mushroom Sauce for steak recipe is easy to prepare and tastes fabulous! You can add some extra pepper, garlic or liquid smoke to the mix to make it even more delicious. A couple of handfuls of baby spinach can add some greenery to the mushroom sauce. Cayenne pepper works well, too. Serve with steaks, schnitzel or other chicken dishes.

  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper or more to taste
