Ingredients

  • 4 shallots, thinly sliced into rings
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour, divided
  • Vegetable oil (for frying)
  • 8 Tbsp butter, divided
  • 1 (8-oz) pkg sliced mushrooms
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1½ cups milk
  • 1 (8-oz) carton sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese
  • 4 (8-oz) pkg green beans

Instructions

  1. Dredge shallots in ½ cup flour, shaking off excess. Pour oil to a depth of 2-inches in a saucepan; heat over medium heat to 350°F on a deep-fry thermometer. Cook shallots in hot oil 2 to 3 minutes or until browned and crisp; drain on paper towels.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F. Melt 6 Tbsp butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat; add mushrooms and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender.
  3. Add ¼ cup flour; cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Add milk; bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until mixture is very thick. Stir in sour cream and cheese until blended.
  4. Meanwhile, steam green beans in microwave according to package directions; place in a lightly greased 13- x 9-inch baking dish. Spoon mushroom mixture over green beans; sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
  5. Melt 2 Tbsp butter, and drizzle over breadcrumbs. Bake 30 minutes; sprinkle with crispy shallots, and bake 10 minutes longer.
