6 tbs Unsalted butter
2 tbs Extra virgin olive oil
1 Small yellow onion (finely chopped)
  Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
3 Garlic cloves (finely chopped)

1 cup Chanterelles
1/2 cup Heavy cream
  Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg

Melt 3 tablespoons butter with 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden, 4-5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in wine and cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add remaining 3 tablespoons butter, remaining one tablespoon oil, and mushrooms.
