- 1.5 lbs Fresh green beans, trimmed
- 2 cans (10.5 oz each) Cream of mushroom soup (condensed)
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 1 tsp Soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp Black pepper, freshly ground
- 2.8 oz (1 large can) Crispy fried onions
How to make Classic Green Bean Casserole with Crispy Fried Onions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 1.5 lbs of trimmed fresh green beans and blanch for 3-5 minutes, or until they are bright green and crisp-tender. Immediately drain the green beans and plunge them into an ice bath to stop the cooking process and preserve their vibrant color. Once cooled, drain thoroughly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cans of condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1 cup whole milk, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Whisk until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
- Add the blanched and drained green beans to the soup mixture. Gently fold in about two-thirds (approximately 1.8 oz) of the crispy fried onions until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Pour the green bean mixture into the prepared 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it into an even layer.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is hot and bubbling around the edges. The sauce should be thickened and the green beans fully cooked through.
- Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the remaining one-third (approximately 1 oz) of crispy fried onions evenly over the top.
- Return the casserole to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the fried onions are golden brown and perfectly crisp. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Remove from oven and serve hot. This classic casserole is best enjoyed immediately while the fried onions are at their crispiest.
