Green Bean Casserole Mushroom Garlic And Bacon Oh My Food

GREEN BEAN-MUSHROOM CASSEROLE WITH CANDIED BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 ̊. Lay the bacon slices on a rack set on a rimmed baking sheet. Combine the brown sugar and maple syrup in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave just until melted, about 15 seconds, then stir. Brush on the top of each slice of bacon. Bake, rotating the pan halfway through, until the bacon is crisp, about 15 minutes. Let sit on the rack for 5 minutes, then lift the bacon off the rack so that it doesn't stick. Return to the rack and let cool completely, about 20 minutes. Chop and set aside.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add half of the green beans and cook until bright green but still crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the beans and immediately plunge into a bowl of ice water. Repeat with the remaining beans. Drain the beans from the ice water once they are cool.
• Dump out the water from the pot. Add 4 tablespoons butter and melt over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, shallots, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Remove everything to a sheet pan.
• Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in the pot over medium-high heat. Add the flour and whisk to combine. Cook for a minute or two, then pour in the milk, half-and-half, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Continue cooking, whisking, until thickened, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Stir the green beans, mushroom mix, the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper into the sauce. Transfer to a 2-quart baking dish and bake until bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes. Top with the bacon and almonds.

GREEN BEAN MUSHROOM CASSEROLE

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 CASSEROLE WITH HOMEMADE MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until they just turn bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. (You don't want to cook the green beans through as they will cook in the oven also.) Strain and plunge the green beans immediately in a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. When cool, drain and set out to dry on paper towels.
• Set a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and vegetable oil. Once the butter is melted and the pan is hot, add the mushrooms. Cook undisturbed so the mushrooms sear nicely, about 1 minute. Add the thyme and garlic and continue cooking the mushrooms to achieve some nice color. Season with the salt, pepper, cayenne and nutmeg. Cook 2 to 3 more minutes longer, dusting the mushrooms with some of the flour as they release moisture. Stir with a whisk to incorporate the flour (just like making a roux) and gradually add in the chicken stock. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and add the sour cream and cream. Stir gently and cook over low heat until gravy thickens, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the blanched green beans to the pan and fold together so everything is mixed well. Spread out evenly in the pan. Sprinkle the green beans with the grated Parmesan and transfer to a roasting tray (to catch any spill-over). Bake until the casserole is bubbly and the top is melted and golden, 15 minutes.
• Pour the vegetable oil into a deep skillet and heat to 350 degrees F. Pour the flour into a large mixing bowl and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Toss the shallot rounds in the seasoned flour, then place in a strainer and shake off any excess flour. Fry the shallots in the hot oil in small batches until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt while still hot.
• Top the green bean casserole with the fried shallots and serve.

• Remove ingredients from pan and set aside in a bowl.
• Add 1 Tablespoon butter to hot pan. Once melted add flour and mix well.

GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE WITH WALNUT BACON CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475°F.
• Make the topping:
• In a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until it is lightly crisp (it will cook a little more in the oven, so no need to get it extra crispy). With a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Add the onion to the bacon drippings (there should be about 1 tablespoon in the skillet; if there's way more than that, pour out some and save it for future use). Cook the onion until it is soft and tender, about 8 minutes. Transfer it to a bowl.
• Add the walnuts to the same pan and cook, shaking the pan often, until they are lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add the walnuts to the bowl with the onion and crumble in the bacon. Add the parsley and toss the whole mixture well. Set aside.
• Wipe out the skillet (you'll be using it again).
• Make the beans:
• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add the beans and blanch them for 5 minutes. While they cook, prepare a large bowl of ice water. Drain the beans in a colander and immediately plunge them into the ice water to stop the cooking. Drain them again and set them aside.
• Make the sauce:
• Melt the butter in the cast-iron skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and a hefty pinch of salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms begin to give up some of their liquid, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and nutmeg and continue to cook for another 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute. Add the broth and simmer for 1 minute. Decrease the heat to medium-low and add the cream. Cook until the mixture thickens, stirring occasionally, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat and add the green beans. Sprinkle them evenly with the bacon and onion mixture and bake until bubbly, approximately 15 minutes.
• Serve immediately.
