Green Beans with Mushrooms and Shallots
I was in the mood for a juicy steak and loaded twice-baked potatoes, so I made these green beans with mushrooms and shallots as a side. It was an extremely simple recipe, had very little cleanup, and tasted fantastic. This easy green bean recipe paired well with the rest of the meal, and my family loved them.
Green Beans with Mushrooms and Shallots
Ingredients:Â
- ½ lb fresh green beans, ends trimmed
- 1 tbsp butter or olive oil
- 8 oz button mushrooms, sliced
- ½ small shallot, sliced into thin rings
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
How to Make Green Beans with Mushrooms and Shallots:
Add the green beans to a large pot of well-salted boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking and to retain the bright green color. Set aside.
Heat the butter or olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook undisturbed (without stirring) for 3-4 minutes; stir and add the shallots to the skillet.
Cook the shallots and mushrooms for 2 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and green beans, and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute or until the green beans are hot. Season with sea salt and pepper to taste.
Serve and enjoy.
