Ingredients

10 servings
  • 1 medium onion, (quartered & thinly sliced)
  • 3 cloves garlic, (minced)
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 pounds green beans, (trimmed & snapped in half)
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme ((or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed))
  • ¾ cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • ¾ cup whipping cream
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly coat a 1½ quart oval baking dish with nonstick spray.

  2. In a 12 inch skillet, cook the onion and garlic in butter over medium heat for 3 minutes or until softened. Stir in the green beans and thyme. Cook for 4 minutes or until the onions begin to brown. Add the broth. Bring to boiling. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes or until the broth is nearly evaporated. Add the whipping cream and nutmeg. Cook for 4 minutes or until the mixture begins to thicken. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Stir in half of the cheese, all of the salt & pepper, and then sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

  3. Bake, uncovered, 15 to 20 minutes or until the beans are tender- crisp.
