FOR THE MUSHROOMS

FOR THE GREEN BEANS

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion, minced
  • 2 medium garlic cloves, minced or pressed
  • 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 pounds green beans, stem ends trimmed, broken into bite-sized pieces

Directions

Step 1 Of 9
1
Toss shallots with salt, pepper and flour in small bowl. Set aside.
2
Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in 12-inch cast iron skillet over the grill on medium-high heat until smoking. Add shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until golden and crisp. This should take about about 5 minutes.
3
Transfer shallots to baking sheet lined with three layers of paper towels. Carefully wipe out skillet and return to medium high heat.
4
Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil, mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned. This should take about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Wipe out skillet.
5
Heat butter in skillet over medium heat. When foaming subsides, add onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until edges begin to brown. This should take about 2 minutes.
6
Stir in garlic and flour. Toss in green beans, thyme and bay leaves.
7
Add cream and chicken broth. Increase heat to medium-high, cover and cook until beans are partly tender but still crisp at the center. This should take about 3 minutes.
8
Add mushrooms and continue to cook, uncovered, until green beans are tender and sauce has thickened slightly. This should take about another 4 minutes.
9
Turn off heat. Remove and discard the bay leaves and thyme. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Transfer to warmed serving dish and sprinkle evenly with fried shallots.
