Ultimate Green Bean Casserole Recipe: Easy & Delicious

Ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) package frozen whole green beans, thawed
• 4 slices bacon
• 0.5 medium onion, chopped
• 0.5 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
• 0.25 cup dry white wine or vermouth
• 0.25 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• salt and pepper to taste
• 0.5 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup canned French fried onions

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) for baking.
2. Cook bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until perfectly crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, then crumble and set aside. Drain most of the bacon grease, leaving a small amount in the pan. Return to medium heat, add onions and bell pepper, and sauté until softened.
3. In the same pan, stir in the white wine, deglazing the pan and scraping up any browned bacon bits. Next, mix in the butter, milk, cream of mushroom soup, and soy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Gently fold in the green beans and crispy bacon until everything is evenly coated. Stir in the mozzarella cheese, then transfer the mixture to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle the top generously with French fried onions.
4. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for approximately 25 minutes, or until heated through, bubbly, and the French fried onions are golden brown.
