Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1 shallot diced
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 teaspoons thyme chopped fresh leaves
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 ½ cups chicken stock
- 1 ½ pounds Green bean trimmed and halved, fresh
- 2 cups White Cheddar Cheese divided, freshly grated
- ½ cup heavy cream
- salt to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- black pepper to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
For the crispy fried shallots
- 2 cups canola oil
- 4 shallot thinly sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rings
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until it registers 325 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer.
- Working in batches, dredge shallots in flour, separating the rings and coating them thoroughly; shake off excess flour.
- Add shallots to the skillet, a handful at a time, and cook, stirring constantly, until evenly golden and crispy, about 2-4 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Melt butter in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and browned, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in garlic, thyme and flour, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Stir in chicken stock, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 4-5 minutes.
- Str in green beans, and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 5-6 minutes.
- Remove from heat; stir in 1 cup white cheddar cheese and heavy cream until smooth, about 1-2 minutes; season with salt and pepper to taste. Top with remaining 1 cup white cheddar cheese, Panko and shallots.
- Place into oven and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 25-30 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- *Panko is a Japanese-style breadcrumb and can be found in the Asian section of your local grocery store.
