Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9X13 casserole dish and keep it aside.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to boil, blanch the green beans for 3-5 minutes and transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
- Heat a heavy bottom pan with butter on a medium flame. Once the butter has melted add the onions and minced garlic, saute till the onions turn translucent.
- Sprinkle the flour and stir for a minute and add in the milk and chicken broth. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Add the spices; paprika, pepper, and salt. Remove the pan from the heat and add the cheddar and parmesan cheese. Stir constantly, the cheese will melt in the heat, and then add half a portion of the fried onions into the sauce mixture.
- Stir in the blanched green beans without the water and fold them into the sauce mixture.
- Transfer the green beans along with the cheesy sauce into the prepared casserole dish. Bake for 20 -25 minutes until warm and bubbly around the edges.
- Add in some more french fried onion on top and serve.
