Ingredients
- 1 pound green beans; fresh or frozen thawed, ends trimmed and cut in half
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- ¼ cup diced onion
- 8 ounces mushrooms chopped
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 2 cups whole milk or heavy cream, divided
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 1 cup crispy fried onions, you can add more if you like
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F
- Trim the ends off of the green beans and cut them in half. Blanch in a microwave by placing them in a medium-sized bowl with two tablespoons of water. Cover with a plate or plastic wrap and microwave for three minutes until they are bright green and crisp-tender. Drain and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onions and garlic. Brown for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add chopped mushrooms and cook for 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in the flour.
- Add the chicken broth and stir to combine. Add one and a half cups of the milk or heavy cream. Add salt, pepper, and soy sauce.
- Whisk the sauce together and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Stir frequently for 4-5 minutes, and it will thicken. Remove from heat. Allow to cool for 5-7 minutes
- Add green beans and the remaining half cup of milk to the sauce. Stir until combined.
- Pour the green bean mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish, coated with non-stick cooking spray. Top with crispy fried onions and parmesan cheese.
- Bake at 375°F for 22-28 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown. Let it rest for a few minutes and serve hot or warm.
Notes
Prepare and measure out all the ingredients before you start cooking. This includes washing, trimming, and cutting the green beans.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasonings to your taste. If you prefer more or less salt, pepper, or other seasonings, feel free to customize the recipe to your taste.
Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes after baking before serving. This helps the flavors come together and makes it easier to handle.
