This Green Beans with Mushrooms recipe is a delightful stove-top side dish that captures the essence of a green bean casserole without requiring oven space. Tender green beans, savory mushrooms, and onions come together in a flavorful chicken stock sauce.

Ingredients

Green Beans:

  • 1 1/2 pounds fresh green beans (trimmed)
  • 1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt (plus more as needed)
  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh black pepper

Mushrooms and Onions:

  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms (cut into thick slices)
  • 1 small red onion (halved and thinly sliced)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter (cut into pieces)

Chicken Stock:

  • 3/4 cup low-sodium chicken stock (plus more as needed)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Spread green beans in a skillet, season with salt and pepper, add mushrooms, onions, and butter, then pour in chicken stock.
  2. Cook: Over medium-high heat, stir occasionally until beans are crisp-tender and mushrooms are coated in a thick sauce, about 20 minutes.
  3. Adjust Consistency: If needed, increase heat to reduce stock or add more stock gradually if beans are not done.
  4. Season and Serve: Adjust salt to taste and serve hot.

Notes

  • If beans are cooked but stock hasn’t reduced, increase heat. If beans need more cooking but liquid has reduced, add stock gradually.
  • Dairy-Free Option: Substitute butter with a dairy-free alternative.
