Green Bean Casserole Recipe with Worcestershire Sauce

Casserole recipes are one of my favorites. I was planning to make one with beef, but then I remembered that I’ve never shared a casserole recipe on my blog based on vegetables, That’s when the idea for this Green Bean Casserole Recipe with Worcestershire Sauce came to mind. It’s a simple casserole recipe based on green beans, with a special sauce that makes it even more delicious and creamy.

I also used mushroom soup as one of the base ingredients in my recipe. However, don’t worry if you don’t have it, you can replace it with milk. Additionally, I included Worcestershire Sauce in the recipe because it adds a tangy and sweet taste to the casserole.

The recipe isn’t difficult to make, even if you’ve never made a casserole before. This Green Bean Casserole Recipe is incredibly simple, and my directions are clear and easy to follow.

The meal was perfect for my family dinner, although the kids weren’t too keen on it, probably because they’re not big fans of green beans. I paired it with my iced fruity tea, and some Garlic bread, and the flavors balanced out beautifully, making it more tasty.

How to Make Green Bean Casserole Recipe?

Step 1:

First, turn on the oven. Set it to 350°F (or 175°C).

Step 2:

Put a big pot of water on the stove and let it get really hot. When it’s bubbling, carefully put the green beans in and let them cook for 5 minutes. After that, take them out and put them in a bowl of cold water with ice. This makes the green beans crunchy.

Step 3:

In another big bowl, mix the creamy soup, milk, special Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, black pepper (for a tiny bit of spice), and some of the crispy onions. Mix it all up really well.

Step 4:

Now, take the green beans from the cold water and put them in the creamy mixture. Mix it all together gently so the green beans get covered in the creamy sauce.

Step 5:

Now grease a baking dish (that means putting a little bit of oil or butter so the casserole doesn’t stick). Then, pour the green bean mixture into the dish. Sprinkle the rest of the crispy onions on top.

Step 6:

Put the baking dish in the oven and let it cook for about 25 to 30 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the onions on top turn golden brown.

Step 7:

When it’s all done, take it out of the oven. Serve it up hot with some garlic bread or other sauces to make it more tasty.

Tips

• You can use fresh green beans or ones from a can. Just make sure to drain the canned ones.
• If you want the sauce extra creamy, use soup with more fat or a bit of heavy cream.
• If you have some left, you can mix them with pasta for another meal, I see a lot of people do it.
• When boiling the green beans, make sure they don’t cook for too long. (I love them a little bit crunchy)
• Make sure to use a baking dish that’s the right size for your casserole. If it’s too small, the casserole might overflow while baking.

What to Pair with this Green Bean Casserole?

This Green Bean Casserole pairs perfectly with Garlic bread as I tested, the bread soaks up all that juicy sauce, and also the bread tastes good. Also, you can serve it alongside some roasted chicken for a complete table for holidays or weekends, or even a vegetarian quiche. As for drinks, you can enjoy it with a glass of iced tea as I did, lemonade, or even sparkling water and If you prefer something warm, a cup of hot cocoa or apple cider will complement the cozy flavors of the casserole.
