Ingredients
- 450 grams green beans, trimmed
- 250 grams button mushrooms, sliced
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 cup crispy fried onions
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 cups water
- 1 bowl (for ice bath) ice cubes
Instructions
Bring 4 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of salt to a boil in a large pot.
Add the green beans to the boiling water and blanch them for 3-4 minutes until bright green and slightly tender.
Immediately transfer the green beans to a bowl filled with ice water to stop cooking. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter with 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the panko breadcrumbs and stir frequently until golden brown and toasted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the skillet and mix with the crispy fried onions. Set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Sauté the garlic and thyme for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for 5-6 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and browned.
Add the blanched green beans to the skillet and toss to combine with the mushrooms. Heat for 2-3 minutes until warmed through.
Transfer the green bean and mushroom mixture to a serving dish and sprinkle the crisp onion crumbs evenly over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
