How to Make Sheila's Green Bean Casserole West
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup finely chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 cup sliced cremini mushrooms and 1/2 cup sliced porcini mushrooms (rehydrated and squeezed dry). Cook until mushrooms release their liquid and brown slightly, about 8-10 minutes.
- Stir in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups of chicken broth until smooth. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup heavy cream, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 (14.5 ounce) can of green beans (drained), 1/2 cup crumbled fried onions, and the mushroom sauce. Gently mix to combine.
- Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Top with the remaining 1/2 cup of crumbled fried onions.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
