Directions
Green Bean Casserole by Wlw, I made this for the first time for Thanksgiving 07, and my aunt said before we left that I had to make it again for Christmas dinner (at her house) Don’t be scared by the amount of ingredients or work – it’s really quite easy and quick to make, and the taste is so much better than making it with pre-made ingredients I doubled the recipe in the picture

Melt the Butter in a 12-Inch Cast Iron Skillet (or a Regular Skillet If You Don't Have a Cast Iron One) Set Over Medium-High Heat. Add the Mushrooms, 1 Teaspoon Salt and Pepper and Cook, Stirring Occasionally, Until the Mushrooms Begin to Give Up Some of Their Liquid, Approximately 4 to 5 Minutes. Add the Garlic and Nutmeg and Continue to Cook For Another 1 to 2 Minutes. Sprinkle the Flour Over the Mixture and Stir to Combine. Cook For 1 Minute. Add the Broth and Simmer For 1 Minute. Decrease the Heat to Medium-Low and Add the Half-and-Half. Cook Until the Mixture Thickens, Stirring Occasionally, Approximately 6 to 8 Minutes. Sometimes I Need to Add Another Tbsp of Flour at This Point to Help the Mixture Thicken. |
