  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients and Cook Green Beans

    Trim ends off green beans.

    Cut mushrooms into 1/4" slices.

    Stem and mince thyme.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Working in batches, if necessary, add green beans, 2 Tbsp. water, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Cover and cook until tender, 8-10 minutes.

    Uncover and cook until water is evaporated, 30-60 seconds.

    Transfer green beans to prepared casserole dish. Keep pan over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Cook Mushrooms and Make Sauce

    Add mushrooms to hot pan. Cook undisturbed until golden, 3-4 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Transfer mushrooms to casserole dish with green beans and gently stir to combine.

    While mushrooms cook, place a small pot over medium heat. Add cream base, thyme, mushroom seasoning, and chicken base and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, reduce heat to low and cook until fragrant and slightly thickened, 4-6 minutes.

    Remove from burner and stir in cheese until melted and combined. Pour sauce over green bean-mushroom mixture.

    Bake Casserole and Finish Dish

    Place casserole dish on prepared baking sheet and bake in hot oven until slightly thickened and bubbling, 15-17 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven. Top evenly with crispy onions and bake again until golden, 3-5 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven. Serve family-style. Bon appétit!
