Mini Green Bean Casserole Cups
  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Add beans and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. The beans will not soften much more during baking, so if you prefer them softer, cook them to your liking.

  2. 2

    Drain the beans, rinse under cold water, and place them in a bowl of ice water to halt the cooking. Once the beans are chilled, drain and set them aside.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray the insides of 4 ramekins with cooking spray.

  4. 4

    Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and shallot and cook until they begin to brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle flour over the mushrooms and stir well to combine. Gradually pour in chicken stock, soy sauce, Dijon, and thyme while stirring constantly; the mixture will be thick at this stage. Stir in half-and-half, salt, and pepper until fully combined. Reduce heat to low and simmer until the flavors meld and the sauce thickens, 3 to 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Stir in the green beans and bacon until evenly combined. Spoon the mixture into the prepared ramekins and top with French-fried onions.

  7. 7

    Bake in the preheated oven for 13 to 15 minutes. Serve immediately.
