Homemade Green Bean Casserole
- FOR THE TOPPING:
- 2 whole Medium Onions, Sliced Thinly
- 1/4 cups All-purpose Flour
- 2 Tablespoons Panko Bread Crumbs
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- FOR THE BEANS:
- 2 Tablespoons Kosher Salt, Plus 1 Teaspoon, Divided
- 2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 1 pound Fresh Green Beans, Washed, Trimmed And Cut In Half
- 12 ounces, weight Mushrooms, Cleaned And Cut In 1/2 Inch Pieces
- 1/2 teaspoons Black Pepper
- 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 2 Tablespoons All-purpose Flour
- 1 cup Chicken Broth
- 1 cup Half-and-half
- 3/4 cups Crushed Club Crackers
- Begin by preheating the oven to 450u0b0F and lining a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Combine all the topping ingredients and spread on prepared cookie sheet. Place in the middle of the oven and cook for 30 minutes. Toss a few times to evenly cook. When browned, remove and allow to cool.
- For the beans, in a large pot bring 1 gallon of water and 2 tablespoons of salt to a boil. Add cleaned green beans and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from water and plunge into ice water. This will stop the cooking.
- Melt butter over medium heat in a 12-inch skillet. Add mushrooms, remaining 1 teaspoon salt and pepper and cook for about 5 minutes. Add garlic, continue cooking for 1-2 minutes. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and allow to brown for 1-2 minutes. Add broth and stir well.
- Reduce heat to medium low and pour in half-and-half. Continue cooking over this low heat and stir occasionally. When it thickens (after 5-6 minutes), add 1/4 of the fried onion topping. Top with cracker crumbs and then remaining onions.
- Bake at 400u0b0F for 15 minutes, or until bubbly. Enjoy!
