    Clean mushrooms, keeping colors separate, and trim tough
    stems. (Save stems for stock.) Slice mushrooms about
    ?-inch thick.

    In a wide skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over
    medium-high. Add onion, season with salt and pepper, and
    cook, stirring, until onion has softened and browned,
    about 10 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.

    Add 1 more tablespoon oil and turn heat to high. Add
    brown mushrooms, season lightly and stir-fry until
    nicely colored, about 3 minutes. Lower heat to medium.
    Add thyme, sage, red-pepper and tomato paste. Add
    tomatoes, stir well, and cook for 1 minute. Season again
    with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon flour,
    stir to incorporate and cook for 1 minute more. Stir in
    reserved onions.

    Add 1 cup mushroom broth and stir until thickened, about
    1 minute. Gradually add another 1 cup broth and cook for
    2 minutes. Sauce should have gravylike consistency; thin
    with more broth if necessary. Adjust seasoning. (May be
    prepared to this point several hours ahead and
    reheated.)

    Just before serving, put butter and 1 tablespoon olive
    oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. When butter
    begins to brown, add chanterelles, season with salt and
    pepper, and sauté for about 2 minutes, until cooked
    through and beginning to brown. Add garlic and parsley,
    stir to coat and cook 1 minute more. Add chanterelles to
    brown mushroom mixture and transfer to a warm serving
    bowl. Accompany with polenta or pasta if you wish.
