Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 slices thick-cut bacon (, diced)
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion
2 cloves garlic (, minced)
12 ounces fresh button or cremini mushrooms (, chopped)
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup half-and-half
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup shredded white cheddar cheese
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound fresh green beans (, trimmed, halved, and blanched (boil 5 minutes, place beans in ice water for a couple of minutes, drain))
1 can quality French fried onions
or gluten free French fried onions

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Fry the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crispy. Add the onions and cook until soft and translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook for another 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms are soft. Transfer the mixture to a bowl.
  • Melt the butter in the same skillet and whisk in the flour. Once combined, continue whisking for another 2 minutes until the mixture has slightly deepened in color. Add the half-and-half and chicken broth while constantly whisking to prevent lumps. Once slightly thickened, add the cheese and whisk until melted and combined.
  • Next add the mushroom/bacon mixture along with the salt and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for a couple of minutes, then add the green beans. Stir to combine.
  • Pour the bean mixture into a 9x13 casserole dish and sprinkle the French fried onions all over the top. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes until bubbling and the onions are golden and crispy. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE FROM SCRATCH



Absolutely Delicious Green Bean Casserole from Scratch image

No cans here! Fresh mushrooms, onion, and herbs with frozen green beans, sour cream, and cheddar cheese make this a delightfully tasty twist on the traditional casserole. I developed this recipe, longing for a 'no cans' version of the classic dish. I made this one year for my husband's family at Christmas time, and now they ask for it every year! My husband asks me to make it for dinner throughout the year.

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 (12 ounce) packages frozen French cut green beans
8 ounces crimini mushrooms, quartered
3 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon lemon zest
½ teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
½ cup milk
1 cup sour cream
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 (2.8 ounce) can canned French fried onions

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place green beans into a saucepan and fill with about 1/2 inch of water. Bring to a boil and steam until beans are tender but still bright green, about 5 minutes. Drain and toss with the mushrooms. Set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and parsley; cook and stir until onion is tender. Whisk in flour until blended, then mix in the lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Gradually whisk in milk, stirring constantly, so that no lumps form and then stir in sour cream. Warm over medium heat until the sauce begins to bubble. Dump in the green beans and mushrooms, stirring to coat.
  • Remove from the heat and toss briefly with some of the Cheddar cheese and French fried onions, saving some of each to sprinkle over the top. Spoon into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and top with the reserved onions and cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese melts, about 15 minutes.
