Creamy Mushroom Pasta

"I usually start my day with a light breakfast of fruit and eggs and take granola bars with me to eat after practice. Lunch and dinner usually consist of chicken over pasta or rice and beans."

Ingredients

8 ounces fettuccine pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
¾ pound fresh white mushrooms sliced
¼ pound fresh shiitake mushrooms stemmed and sliced
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic minced
2 fluid ounces sherry
1 cup chicken stock
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh chives
1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
9 tablespoons freshly shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese divided

Instructions

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain but do not rinse pasta; transfer to a large serving bowl and keep warm.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir white and shiitake mushrooms in hot oil with a pinch of salt until liquid from mushrooms evaporates and mushrooms are browned, about 10 minutes.
Stir garlic into mushrooms and cook for 1 minute; pour in sherry and cook until wine is evaporated. Stir in chicken stock, season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat, and cook until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
Pour cream into mushroom mixture, stir to combine, and simmer for 5 minutes. Mixture will foam and thicken slightly.
Stir thyme, chives, and tarragon into mushroom sauce and turn off heat; mix 1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese into sauce until cheese is melted.
Pour 1/2 of the mushroom sauce over pasta; toss to coat. Top with remaining mushroom sauce and 1 tablespoon Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
