Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter, or more as needed
1 large onion, chopped
½ cup diced celery
3 cups barley
2 ½ cups chicken broth
1 (4 ounce) can chopped mushrooms

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a covered casserole dish with butter.
Heat 4 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion and celery until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add barley and cook until slightly brown, about 5 minutes.
Pour chicken broth and mushrooms into the prepared casserole dish. Spoon in barley mixture and blend well.
Bake in the preheated oven until liquid is absorbed and barley is tender, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes.
