Ingredients

1/2
cup buttermilk
1/2
cup Progresso® plain dry bread crumbs
1
onion, cut crosswise into 1/4”-thick slices and separated into rings
1/2
pound mushrooms, sliced
1
small onion, chopped
1/2
teaspoon dried thyme
1/4
teaspoon salt
1/4
cup Gold Medal® unbleached or all-purpose flour
3
cups 1% milk
1
bag (16 ounces) frozen French-cut green beans, thawed and drained

Directions

  • 1 Preheat the oven to 500°F. Coat a medium baking dish with cooking spray. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • 2 Place the buttermilk in a shallow bowl. Place the bread crumbs in another shallow bowl. Dip the onion rings into the buttermilk, then dredge in the bread crumbs and place on the baking sheet. Coat lightly with cooking spray. Bake for 20 minutes, or until tender and golden brown.
  • 3 Meanwhile, coat a medium saucepan with cooking spray. Set over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, chopped onion, thyme, and salt. Coat with cooking spray. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms give off liquid. Sprinkle with the flour. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the milk. Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until thickened. Add the green beans. Stir to mix
  • 4 Reduce the oven temperature to 400°F. Pour the bean mixture into the prepared baking dish. Scatter the onion rings over the top. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.

Creamy and close to the original. Reading previous posts, I decided to reduce the amount of milk to 2 cups, which was sufficient. Also watch closely when cooking onion rings so they won't burn. I added a little cheese to give a little different flavor.

Loved this recipe and will be using it in the future. I did beat an egg white into the buttermilk for the onion rings and I used panko bread crumbs. Be sure to add the milk slowly to ensure thickening and adjust amount as necessary.

I made this the day before Thanksgiving and snuck a taste right out of the oven and it just tasted like peppered green beans. But then I ate it the next day and it was so delicious!! After reading the reviews, I used less milk and just eyeballed it. I also added pepper and garlic granules to taste. I will be making this every Thanksgiving from now on (and try not to burn the onion rings)!
