INGREDIENTS LIST FOR THE GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE RECIPE
- One pound (450 grams) of cleaned and trimmed green beans
- One tablespoon of butter without salt
- Half a cup of fried, crispy bacon (vegetarians may omit)
- 3/4 cup of vegetable broth or chicken stock
- One cup of thickened cream for whipping
- six big garlic cloves, chopped or minced finely
- One teaspoon of newly cracked black pepper
- One spoonful of seasoning from Italy
- One-fourth cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- Chopped parsley fresh for garnish
DIRECTIONS
- To prepare the casserole with green beans: Set the oven temperature to 400ºF, or 200ºC. Melt the butter in a large 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-low heat. Add the minced garlic and simmer, stirring now and then, until aromatic, being careful not to burn it.
- Add the cream after the chicken broth has simmered for three minutes. Simmer for around five minutes, or longer if you’d like a richer sauce, stirring from time to time until the mixture thickens. Add Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper for seasoning.
- After turning off the heat, mix in the green beans with the cream sauce. Stir well to combine the beans and sauce. Bake the green bean casserole for ten to fifteen minutes, or until bubbling. Take out of the oven and place on top of bacon with parmesan. The green bean casserole with bacon and parmesan can be served right away or reheated as needed after tossing to mix and transferring to a serving dish or bowl. Have fun!
