Barley with Mushrooms and Green Beans Recipe
- 1 cup pearl barley
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup finely chopped red onion
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 12 ounces white or cremini mushrooms, stemmed and sliced 1/4 inch thick
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 12 ounces green beans, trimmed and sliced 1/2 inch thick on the bias
- 2 cups mushroom broth
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh Italian parsley
- Bring a medium saucepan of heavily salted water to a boil over high heat.
- Stir in the barley, reduce the heat to medium, and cook until al dente, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Drain and set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat.
- When the foaming subsides, add the onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms, increase the heat to medium high, and cook, stirring rarely, until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
- Add the wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add the green beans and broth, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the beans are fork tender and the broth is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the reserved barley and cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
- Stir in the parsley and remaining 1 tablespoon butter and season with salt and pepper.
