Green Bean Casserole
Green Bean Casserole is a classic holiday dish that's often overlooked. This version is made from all fresh ingredients... not your mother's canned soup version.
Ingredients
- 1 pound green beans, cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 1 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1/2 cup panko or bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup whole milk (you can use half and half if you want the dish to be extra rich and creamy)
- cooking oil spray
Instructions
- Place the green beans in a steamer pot over boiling water and steam for 8 minutes or until fork tender.
- Preheat oven to 400 F.
- In a large sauce pot melt 1 tablespoon butter and sauté the chopped onion and 1/4 teaspoon of salt for 4 minutes.
- Remove the onions and set aside in a separate bowl with the panko and parmesan cheese. Toss to evenly combine.
- In the same large sauce pot, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, add the mushrooms and remaining 1 teaspoon of salt and sauté for 4 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of flour over the mushrooms and stir for 30 seconds until evenly coated.
- Add the chicken broth and milk, bring to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes or until thickened. If you run your spoon through the sauce and it immediately runs back together, continue to reduce.
- Add the beans to the sauce and then pour into a greased 8 x 8 inch baking dish.
- Sprinkle with onion/panko mixture on top, lightly spray with oil and bake for 25 minutes or until the top is golden.
- Serve.
