- 3 cups sliced assorted fresh wild mushrooms, such as cremini, portobello*, chanterelle, and/or stemmed shiitake or oyster (8 ounces)
- 1/4 cup sliced shallots (2 medium)

1. Grease a 2-quart rectangular baking dish; set aside. In a large skillet cook mushrooms, shallots, and garlic in hot oil over medium heat about 5 minutes or until tender. Carefully add sherry. Simmer until liquid is almost all evaporated. Transfer mixture to a large bowl. Stir in focaccia.
