INGREDIENTS | |
2 pounds | fresh green beans or frozen french cut green beans |
4 tablespoons | unsalted butter |
6 tablespoons | flour |
1 cup | chicken broth |
1 cup | milk |
1/2 cup | half and half |
1/2 teaspoon | salt |
1/2 teaspoon | black pepper |
1/2 teaspoon | ground thyme |
8 ounces | fresh mushrooms, cleaned, stems removed, and sliced |
1 cup | parmesan cheese, finely grated, (optional) |
6 slices | bacon, cooked and crumbled, (optional) |
1/2 cup | panko bread crumbs, + 1 tablespoon butter |
1 and 1/2 cups French’s French Fried Onions, divided DIRECTIONS In a large saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons unsalted butter over low heat. Whisk in 6 tablespoons flour and let cook for 1-2 minutes. Slowly stir in 1 cup chicken broth, then 1 cup milk. Whisk until it begins to thicken. Let it simmer for a few minutes. Season to taste with a bit of salt and pepper. Stir in 1/2 cup half and half, then set aside. In a non-stick skillet, sauté 8 ounces fresh mushrooms slowly so that they release all of their moisture. Season them with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon ground thyme. When the mushrooms start to turn golden brown (after about 10 minutes), add them to the sauce from step 1. Stir in 1 cup finely grated parmesan cheese. In a large bowl, toss either fresh or frozen green beans with the mushroom sauce. Spray a slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Pour the green bean mixture into the slow cooker and sprinkle 1/2 cup French’s French Fried Onions over the top. | |
Fresh beans, cook on low for 4-6 hours Frozen beans: cook on low for 5-6 hours |
Shortly before serving, heat 1 tablespoon butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add in 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs and cook until lightly toasted. Add in 1 cup French Fried Onions and cook for a minute longer.
When the green bean casserole is done cooking, transfer it to a serving dish. Sprinkle the french fried onion/panko bread crumb mixture over the top and serve.
