Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 medium onion
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/3 cup chicken broth or dry white wine
  • 1 cup heavy/whipping cream
  • 2 9 ounce packages refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • to taste Salt & pepper

Method
 

  1. Add the oil and butter to a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion for 5 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, prep your mushrooms (I like to prep as I go to save time).
  3. Add the mushrooms, garlic, and Italian seasoning to the pan. Continue sautéing for another 5 minutes.
  4. Add the chicken broth, cream, and tortellini to the skillet. Give it a good stir and then cover the pan. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes.
  5. Uncover the pan and stir it. The tortellini will be cooked and the sauce should have reduced/thickened up a bit. Add in the spinach and stir continuously until it's wilted (about a minute or two). I found the sauce plenty as-is, but feel free to add a splash more cream if needed.
  6. Stir in the parmesan and season with salt & pepper as needed. Serve immediately.
