Another gem from the San Francisco Chronicle which is superb with poultry, pork, or even to mix with tofu for a vegetarian dish if you substitute for the chicken broth.
Ingredients
- 2 or 3 Tbsp. olive oil shopping list

How to make it
- In a medium-sized skillet or wok heat the olive oil. Add the onions and cook until they start to become translucent, then add the garlic.
- When the garlic is aromatic add the mushrooms, butter, and season to taste.
- Cook a minute before adding the wine. (at this point grab a nice wine glass and start sipping and enjoying yourself), and continue to cook until the wine in the skillet is reduced by half.
- Add the cranberries, cranberry juice, broth, and sprig of thyme.
- Simmer until the juice and broth are reduced and the mixture is somewhat saucy.
- Remove the thyme sprig, taste, and adjust the seasonings. Add some brown sugar if a bit of sweetness would balance the flavors.
