Wildly Delicious Wild Mushroom Fettuccine - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
    2 shallots, minced
    2 portabella mushroom caps, halved and thinly sliced
    6 cremini mushroom caps, halved and thinly sliced
    6 shiitake mushroom caps, slivered
    1/4 teaspoon ground thyme
    ground nutmeg (2 pinches)
    coarse salt
    black pepper
    1/2 cup sherry wine
    1 cup chicken broth
    2/3 cup heavy cream
    1 lb fettuccine, cooked until al dente
    1/2 cup toasted chopped hazelnuts
    6 fresh chives
    grated romano cheese
Preparation
    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
    Add in shallots; saute 2 minutes; then add in mushrooms.
    Saute mushrooms 2 minutes, then cover pan; decrease heat to medium-low, and cook 3-5 minutes, until juices are extracted and mushrooms are dark and tender.
    Uncover and increase heat to medium; add in thyme, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
    Toss mushrooms with a good shake of the pan.
    Add in sherry; reduce liquid by half, 2-3 minutes.
    Add in broth, then cream; simmer until sauce thickens so that it coats the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes.
    Toss with hot pasta; top with chives and toasted hazelnuts.
    Serve with grated cheese (also crusty bread and a green salad).
