- Onion topping:
- 2 medium onions, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp panko bread crumbs
- 1 tsp salt
- non-stick cooking spray
- Beans and sauce:
- 1 cup buttermilk or 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 4 tbsp plus 2 tsp. kosher salt, divided
- 2 lbs fresh green beans, rinsed, trimmed and halved
- large bowl of ice water
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 20 oz. mushrooms, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp. freshly ground nutmeg
- 4 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup half-and-half
Method
- Heat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Place the onions in a large mixing bowl and toss with buttermilk or beaten egg.
- Combine the flour, panko and salt in a large bowl.
- Remove the onions from the egg or buttermilk and toss in the flour mixture, making sure the onions are evenly coated.
- Coat a sheet pan with non-stick cooking spray and evenly spread the onions on the pan.
- Place the pan on the middle rack of the oven and bake until the onions are golden brown, approximately 30 minutes. Toss the onions at least 2 to 3 times during cooking.
- Once the onions are done, remove from the oven and set aside until ready to use.
- Turn the oven down to 400 degrees.
- Bring a gallon of water and 4 Tbsp. of salt to a boil in an 8-quart saucepan.
- Add the beans and blanch for 5 minutes.
- Drain in a colander and immediately plunge the beans into a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking then drain and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet set over medium-high heat.
- Add the mushrooms, 2 teaspoons salt, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms begin to give up some of their liquid, about 4-5 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, then decrease the heat to medium-low and add the half-and-half.
- Cook until the mixture thickens, stirring occasionally, approximately 6 to 8 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and stir in 1/4 of the onions and all of the green beans.
- Spread the green bean mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Top with the remaining onions, place into the oven and bake until bubbly, approximately 15 minutes.
