Grilled Green Bean Sausage Casserole

Serves: 8 from 12-inch cast iron skillet, or double the recipe for 17-inch skillet.

 

1/2 tube Jimmy Dean sage sausage

2 tablespoons olive oil

3/4 pound mushrooms, sliced (any variety)

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons green onion, sliced

1 pound fresh green beans

1 cup chicken broth

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon butter, room temperature

1 tablespoon flour

1/2 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon pepper

Prep green beans by cutting off tips and cutting in half.

Heat grill to medium-high.

Place 12-inch cast iron skillet on grill. Add sausage and cook through.

Add olive oil, mushrooms, garlic and green onions. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add green beans, chicken broth and soy sauce. Reduce heat to low. Cover the skillet and close grill lid. Cook for 30 minutes, or until beans are tender.

In a small bowl, combine butter and flour with a fork and set aside.

Add cream, salt and pepper to beans. Increase heat to medium-high. Cook uncovered for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in butter mixture. Continue cooking for about 5 minutes or until sauce reaches desired consistency.

Tip: Follow the same steps to make this on a stove top!
