 2 pounds mixed fresh wild mushrooms (such as shiitake, cremini, and oyster), quartered, or, if small, halved
 3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
 12 large garlic cloves, peeled and halved
 8 thyme sprigs
 1 teaspoon pepper
 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
 12 ounces pappardelle pasta
 1 1/2 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth
 1/3 cup loosely packed flat-leaf parsley leaves, divided
 1/3 cup loosely packed tarragon leaves, divided
 2 ounces parmesan cheese, shredded (3/4 cup)
Step 1

Preheat oven to 475° with a rack in top third of oven and another in lower third. Combine mushrooms, oil, garlic, thyme, pepper, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a large bowl; toss to coat. Divide seasoned mushrooms between two large rimmed baking sheets and spread in an even layer.

Transfer broiled mushrooms to a bowl. Scrape browned bits from one baking sheet onto second baking sheet. Set baking sheet with browned bits on stovetop over medium-high heat. Add broth and cook, stirring and scraping to loosen browned bits from bottom of baking sheet, until mixture boils and reduces slightly, 1 to 2 minutes.
