Instructions

 

  • Preheat the oven to 475 degrees.
  • Combine the onions, flour, panko and salt in a large mixing bowl and toss to combine.
  • Coat a sheet pan with non-stick cooking spray and evenly spread the onions on the pan.
  • Place the pan on the middle rack of the oven and bake until golden brown, approximately 30 minutes.
  • Toss the onions 2 to 3 times during cooking.
  • Once done, remove from the oven and set-aside until ready to use.
  • Turn the oven down to 400 degrees.
  • While the onions are cooking, prepare the beans.
  • Bring a gallon of water and 2 tbsp of salt to a boil in an 8-quart saucepan.
  • Add the beans and blanch for 5 minutes.
  • Drain in a colander and immediately plunge the beans into a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking.
  • Drain and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a 12-inch cast iron skillet set over medium-high heat.
  • Add the mushrooms, 1 tbs salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms begin to give up some of their liquid, approximately 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and nutmeg and continue to cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir to combine.
  • Cook for 1 minute.
  • Add the broth and simmer for 1 minute.
  • Decrease the heat to medium-low and add the half-and-half.
  • Cook until the mixture thickens, stirring occasionally, approximately 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in 1/4 of the onions and all of the green beans.
  • Top with the remaining onions.
  • Place into the oven and bake until bubbly, approximately 15 minutes.
  • Remove and serve immediately.
