Instructions

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Infuse with garlic, salt, black pepper, and thyme; cook until wonderfully fragrant, around 30 seconds. Add mushrooms; cook until perfectly tender, about 5 minutes.
Introduce the richness of wine, beef broth, and bay leaf; cook until the sauce reduces by approximately 1/4, about 20 minutes.
Create a smooth slurry by whisking water and cornstarch in a bowl; whisk this into the simmering sauce. Reduce heat; simmer until desired thickness is achieved, around 2 to 3 minutes. Remember to remove bay leaf before serving.
