How to Make the BEST Green Bean Casserole
Ingredients
Be sure to see the recipe card below for the full listing of ingredients, instructions, notes, and estimated nutritional information.
To make this, you’ll need the following ingredients:
- green beans – fresh or frozen
- butter
- mushrooms – sliced
- milk
- Stone House Seasoning
- Worcestershire sauce or coconut aminos
- cream of chicken soup – homemade or store-bought
- Crispy onions
Step-by-Step Instructions
Prep. Preheat your oven to 350ºF. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick baking spray and set aside.
Quick Boil Green Beans. Bring about 2 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Then add the green beans to the boiling water and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the boiling water and place in a bowl of ice water, or rinse immediately with ice-cold water. Then set the green beans aside.
Saute and Cook. Meanwhile, melt the butter and saute the mushrooms until tender, about 7 to 8 minutes. Add the green beans, milk, soup, Worcestershire sauce, Stone House Seasoning, and half of the crispy onions. Stir to combine and pour into the casserole dish.
Bake. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes uncovered.
Add Topping and Bake. Remove from the oven and top with remaining crispy onions. Return to the oven until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
Storage Tips
To make ahead. Once you have spread your casserole mixture into the baking dish, cover it with a tight-fitting lid or wrap it well with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for up to three days. When ready to serve, remove from the refrigerator and bake as directed for 20 minutes. Then, remove from the oven and top with topping, and bake the remainder of the time.
To freeze. It is not recommended to freeze green bean casserole that has already been cooked. Instead, follow the instructions given to make ahead, making sure to store in a freezer-safe baking dish and freeze for up to two weeks. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, and then proceed with the recipe.
