This Creamy Mushroom and Leek Pasta is scrumptious. It was well loved by everyone, even the wee ones! You should have seen my son and his cousin chomping on this pasta. It was the sweetest sight. The were pretending they were in a fancy restaurant and they thanked me profusely in between of all their lips-making. It was really, really good and it re-heats really well!

Have you cooked with leeks? You know they are just a very mild sweet onion? Sort of like a giant green onion, except they don’t make you cry when you chop them. Leeks are wonderful and so easy to work with.

I’ve included some details on how to prepare them in this post. If you haven’t tried leeks, they have the texture of artichoke when cooked with just have a hint of sweet onion flavor. They add color, a healthy boost, and fantastic flavor to this mushroom pasta sauce.

Ingredients for Mushroom and Leek Alfredo Pasta:

2 Tbsp olive oil
2 large leeks, stems removed, thinly sliced
1/2 lb mushrooms (white or brown will do just fine)
3 garlic cloves, pressed
1/2 cup reduced sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 Tbsp chopped Dill, fresh or frozen (use parsley if you don’t have access to dill)
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
1/8 tsp pepper, or to taste
Parmesan to serve
12 oz of your favorite pasta, cooked in salted water according to package instructions, drained & rinsed.

Mushroom and Leek Pasta

How to Prep Your Leeks:

1. Cut off the root hairs and most of your green stems. Keep the stems for making stock. This part is edible when you cook it for longer periods of time.

2. Cut your leeks in half lengthwise and then half each stock again so you have 4 long quarters. Finley slice the leeks and rinse in cold water to get rid of any dirt in the leek (leeks hide dirt very well). Drain well.

How to Make Creamy Mushroom and Leeks Pasta:

1.Heat a large pan over medium/high heat. Add 2 Tbsp olive oil and the finely chopped leeks. Saute 2 minutes.

2. Cut mushrooms in half if they are small and into quarters if they are larger. Add halved/sliced mushrooms and 3 pressed garlic cloves. Saute uncovered, stirring often for 8 minutes or until mushrooms are soft. This smells so good!

3. Stir in 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream.

4. Add 2 Tbsp chopped dill, 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste) and 1/8 tsp pepper. Simmer uncovered another 5 minutes for the sauce to thicken up a little.

Pour over your favorite cooked pasta. This would work over just about any noodles. I served it over angel hair pasta (my favorite).

    I love this recipe! I’m not much of a cook, but I will make this for a couple coming over for dinner. Can you suggest how much I can do ahead of time? Does the sauce get too thick if I make it all ahead of time (except the pasta) and let it sit on the stove? Thanks!

    I love the taste of mushrooms but don’t like the texture. This hides the weird texture really well especially if you slice the mushrooms thin instead of quartering them. I haven’t ever fully enjoyed mushrooms until now, so thank you Natasha!!
    I also garnished with grated Parmesan and a little crushed red pepper. Served w toasted bakery bread. One of my new favorite recipes!

    This recipe is absolutely DELICIOUS! Having leftover ingredients to use up, I made it twice in the last week, making a couple of adjustments each time:

    The first time I cooked chunks of chicken in the same pan, seasoned with only salt and pepper, before cooking up the leeks. The chicken added protein and more flavor.

    The second time, I added sliced chicken sausage to the cooked leek mixture and added more mushrooms. I also made a rue to thicken the sauce up, which I preferred over the thin soup-like sauce (which was still good).

    This is a very easy and scrumptious recipe that can be easily adjusted upon. I would highly recommend!

    I just made this for dinner tonight. Wow! Will definitely be making again!

    I hate it when folks comment on recipes with their 80,000 alterations, so I’ll try to make this brief. My husband is vegetarian, so I used vegetable broth and added a few pinches of flour to thicken the sauce. Worked a treat. I also added extra garlic and garlic pepper because I have a garlic problem. For myself, I added a handful of ready cooked shrimp on top—YUM!

    My husband doesn’t love garlic or mushrooms, but he liked this! This was my first real time making my own pasta sauce, and it turned out great. I could (but won’t) go eat the rest of the pan right now. Definitely a new favourite. Thanks!!

    I’ve made this recipe 3 times already because it is delicious! I simply make the sauce by stirring a tablespoon of cornstarch to cold silk almond, then add to recipe, heat and stir. This is easy, flavorful, and healthy, and I don’t even miss the meat. So far I’ve only made it with fettuccini, but I bet it would also taste good over rice.

      I’d cook it a little longer to make the sauce thicker. Also, this sauce thickens more as it cools.

          Hi Gager, it’s difficult to say without testing it first with those alcohol add-ins. I think it would be a good experiment – I make my shrimp alfredo with some white wine and love it. I think the ideas of more onion, garlic and cayenne are great! 🙂

            Addition of white wine (oaked Chardonay), more onion, more garlic and cayenne worked wonderfully well. The key was to lightly cook the lobster and set aside so it did not turn to rubber. The rest of the flavours married and then add the lobster back in at the end – great Valentines dinner, guests raved.

    Second time I make this, and it turned out amazing, once again. I add cooked chicken towards the end, cause my hubby always needs some kind of meat. Also my 3yr old who hates mushrooms just gobbled it up, and didn’t notice that it had them.And my hubby was raving about it. A Success in my book!!! Thanks for the awesome recipe, and your hard work with the blog. I love your blog. I always make your recipes, which turn out great, and my husband was bragging the other day how my cooking is better than anyone else he knows. Lol ok, maybe besides his mother. Lol it made me feel really good, but if it wasn’t for your easy to follow recipes, I probably wouldn’t be as good or have the courage to try! 🙂 Thanks!

    I made this last night, but made a few adjustments… I added 1/2 c of half and half in place of 1/2 c of the whipping cream, to lighten it up a bit. I also thought it needed “Something” else, so I ended up adding cajun seasoning and a little of the parmesan cheese during the cooking process… JUST what it needed, a little kick!

    This was phenomenal – tasted like a nice dish in a NYC restaurant, something I miss living in Charlotte. Very filling and flavor of garlic, leeks and mushrooms (used crimini) was outstanding. My kids that don’t go near anything with mushrooms ate it all up and so did my picky husband. I’m definitely a fan of your recipes. Also tried the chck zucchini fritters tonight and it actually was a nice munch side to this.

      Yes, I make chicken broth out of it. It’s from Costco and it’s a very economical way to go! 😉

        I use chicken base in my gravies all the time just by itself don’t add water to it..another yummy gravy with chicken base I do is..
        cut up few pieces of chicken breast into strips and sauteed on med high heat, add salt and pepper
        red bell pepper cut into strips and sauteed
        2-3 tbl spoons chicken base
        1 pint heavy whipping cream
        1 pint half & half
        1 packet chicken gravy mix, mixed with 1 cup milk
        add everything to the pan and heat it through until just before boiling point, don’t over boil because it might curdle
        serve over rice, mashed potatoes or pasta

    Hey Natasha, would this be ok to be served over mashed potatoes? Or should I stick to Pasta…

      I think that would taste really good as a gravy. Let me know how you like it! 🙂

      I’m sure you’ll love them if you like onions or green onions. Even if you didn’t love onion and green onion (you probably wouldn’t be European lol), you’d still probably love leeks. They are so mild and nice.

    Thanks for another great recipe! I’ve always been afraid of buying leeks because I didn’t know what to do with them. The pictures you post are very helpful. Keep up the good work!!

      What would you replace it with? I haven’t really tried with anything else. You could try half and half with a little flour, but it might not have quite the same rich delicious flavor 😉

        I may just add flour and use more broth…. My husband is not so much into dairy sauces with meat. Thank you for your quick reply! Greatly appreciated!

    Looks amazing Natasha. 🙂 Mushrooms make everything taste better, don’t they and I love leeks. I never ate them much until we moved to England and they are strangely loved here. 🙂

      I hear they are very popular in your part of the world; much more so than in the states. I do love the combination of both.
