This recipe may be a little more labor intensive to make than the usual green bean casserole but it's so worth it. I love the fresh green beans and the cheese! I always use more mushrooms than called for just because I love them!

Categories     side-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 white onion, diced
4 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
4 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and sliced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
1/2 cup half-and-half
Kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed and halved
Freshly ground pepper
1 white onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 cup buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
Kosher salt
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Make the casserole: Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the diced onion; cook, stirring, until softened, 7 to 10 minutes. Add the mushrooms; sauté until softened and most of the liquid has evaporated, 10 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the broth and half-and-half. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until crisp-tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain; shake o any excess water and add to the mushroom sauce. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are very tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Make the topping: Soak the sliced onion in the buttermilk, 5 minutes. Combine the flour and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Heat 2 to 3 inches vegetable oil in a large pot until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Working in batches, drain the onion, toss with the flour and shake o the excess, then fry until golden, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
  • Transfer the green bean mixture to a 4-quart baking dish and top with the fried onion. (The casserole and topping can be made up to 2 hours ahead; refrigerate the casserole. Bring to room temperature; reheat at 350 degrees F, 30 minutes. Top with the fried onion; bake 5 more minutes.)

GREEN BEAN-MUSHROOM CASSEROLE (BY PAULA DEEN)



Green Bean-Mushroom Casserole (By Paula Deen) image

This is a highly rated recipe from Paula Deen of the Food Channel and worth making! I have tweaked it slightly and doubled the complete amounts to suit our tastes --- Paula has a house seasoning blend mix which is 1/2 cup salt mixed with 2 tablespoons black pepper and 2 tablespoons garlic powder, she uses a small amount in this casserole, you have the option of omitting the fresh garlic and adding it in, store the remaining mix in an air tight container for up to 6 months, I strongly recommend using low-sodium cream of mushroom soup

PAULA'S GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE



Paula's Green Bean Casserole image

My family loves green bean casserole but I'm a bit weary of the regular old recipe. Found this from Ms. Deen and plan to try for our next holiday meal.

Provided by KathyP53

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup diced onion
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
2 cups sliced fresh green beans
3 cups chicken broth
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1 (2 7/8 ounce) can French fried onion rings
1 pinch seasoning salt (Paula's House seasoning or other)
1 cup grated cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Melt butter in large skillet. Saute onions and mushrooms in butter. Boil green beans in chicken broth for 10 minutes and drain. Add green beans, mushroom soup, onion rings, and seasoning salt to onion mixture. Stir well. Pour into a greased 1 1/2 quart baking dish. Bake for 20 minutes, then top with cheddar cheese and bake for 10 minutes longer, or until casserole is hot and cheese is melted and bubbly.

Tips:

  • Use fresh green beans for the best flavor and texture. Fresh green beans should be bright green and snap when you break them. If you're using frozen green beans, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the green beans. Overcooked green beans will be mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This recipe calls for cremini mushrooms, but you can use any type of mushroom you like. Some other good options include shiitake, oyster, and portobello mushrooms.
  • Season the casserole well. This recipe uses a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to season the casserole. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as thyme, rosemary, or paprika.
  • Top the casserole with a crunchy topping. The crunchy topping on this casserole is made from crushed crackers and melted butter. You can use any type of cracker you like, but Ritz crackers are a classic choice. You can also add some grated Parmesan cheese to the topping for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

This green bean mushroom casserole is a delicious and easy to make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with fresh green beans, mushrooms, cream of mushroom soup, and a crunchy cracker topping. The casserole is baked in the oven until bubbly and golden brown. Serve it hot and enjoy!
