Ingredients

2-pounds fresh green beans, trimmed and cut in half

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

8-ounce cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced

1 medium shallots, finely chopped

4 medium garlic cloves, minced

¼ cup all-purpose flour

1 cup chicken or vegetable stock

½ cup whole milk

¼ teaspoon nutmeg

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup FAGE Sour Cream

½ cup panko crumbs

¾ cup shredded parmesan cheese

Fried Shallot Topping:

3 large shallots, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

4 tablespoons olive oil

    Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add green beans and cook for about 4 minutes. Remove beans and place into an ice bath for 3 minutes and drain beans in a colander. Add beans into a heat resistant, large baking dish.
  3. Heat a large saucepan to medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter. Add mushrooms, shallots, and garlic. Cook for 5 minutes and transfer into the baking dish.
  4. In the same pan, add remaining 4 tablespoons of butter and flour and whisk together until golden in color. Reduce heat to medium-low and add chicken stock, milk, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Keep whisking until smooth.
  5. Remove from heat and add sour cream to the pan and whisk until well combined.
  6. Pour mixture over the green beans and mushrooms and mix well.
  7. Top the green beans with panko crumbs and parmesan cheese. Bake for 40-45 minutes.
  8. In a small bowl, add flour and shallots and lightly toss together.
  9. Add olive oil to a medium sized skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots and fry until the edges are crisp. Drain on a paper towel and set aside.
  10. Once the beans are finished in the oven, sprinkle on fried shallots and serve immediately.
