This was very good!!
Pre-heated oven to 375.
Started with 1 lb (cleaned, trimmed) chanterelle. I cleaned them under cold water and then dried them with towels, cut them into 1/2" to 1" pieces.
With pan on 8, dry-cooked them, pouring off water ever 3-4 minutes until all water was gone (about 8 minutes).
Added ~2 tbsp butter cut into small cubes, a pinch salt, and 2 minced garlic cloves. Cooked on 4 for about 5 minutes until browned a bit. Added the leaves from 2 springs of thyme at the end.
Meanwhile, combined 7 eggs, 1/4 cup heavy cream + 3/4 cup whole milk, 1/2 tsp salt, black pepper, and 1 cup grated sharp cheddar.
Added in mushroom mixture.
Poured into pie dish (I didn't pre-grease it and it was fine). Cooked 30 min, then grated a bit of parm on top and broiled for a few more minutes.
Delicious!!
