Make sure to salt the pasta water! Salted water flavours the pasta from the inside out as the pasta cooks. Wash and dry all produce.* Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Mince or grate the garlic. Strip 1 tbsp thyme leaves off the sprigs. Roughly chop the parsley. Thinly slice the mushrooms.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil, then the leeks. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 min. Add the mushrooms, garlic and thyme to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden-brown and the garlic is fragrant, 7-8 min. Season with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, add the linguine to the boiling water. Cook until the noodles are tender, 2-3 min. Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain the pasta.
Add the broth concentrate and reserved pasta water to the pan and stir to combine. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cream cheese until the sauce comes together, 2-3 min.
Return the pan to medium heat. Add the linguine, 1 tbsp butter and half the Parmesan cheese to the pan. Cook, stirring together, until the pasta is warmed through, 1-2 min. Season with salt and pepper.
Divide the mushroom and leek linguine between bowls. Sprinkle with the parsley and remaining Parmesan.
