Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch pan and set aside.
Step 2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and blanch them for 3 to 4 minutes. Drain, and immediately place them into a large bowl filled with ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again. Place the green beans on a clean kitchen towel or plate lined with a paper towel. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the pepper. Cook for about five minutes stirring occasionally. Stir in the garlic and cook for another two minutes.
Step 4
Sprinkle the flour on top of the mushrooms, stir until well combined. Add the vegetable broth and simmer for 2 to 3 more minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and add the heavy cream. Stirring occasionally, cook until the sauce has thickened, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 5
Remove from heat and add the green beans and 1 cup of fried onions. Stir until sauce and beans are well combined. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
Step 6
In a medium skillet, melt remaining tablespoon of butter. Add the panko breadcrumbs and cook until the breadcrumbs are toasted, 3 to 4 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Step 7
Top with the remaining onions, toasted breadcrumbs, and parmesan cheese. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes or until bubbly.
