Ingredients

• 450 grams green beans
• 200 grams Portobello mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 medium shallot
• 2 garlic cloves
• 60 milliliters dry sherry
• 120 milliliters vegetable broth
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Wash and trim the green beans. Set them aside.

Step 2

Slice the Portobello mushrooms into thin strips and set them aside.

Step 3

Peel and finely dice the shallot. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and blanch them for 3-4 minutes, until they are crisp-tender. Drain and immediately plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.

Step 5

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Once the butter melts, add the shallots and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 6

Add the minced garlic and sliced Portobello mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden and tender.

Step 7

Pour in the dry sherry. Stir and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off.

Step 8

Add the vegetable broth and soy sauce to the skillet. Stir to combine, and let the mixture simmer for another 2-3 minutes.

Step 9

Add the green beans to the skillet, tossing to coat them evenly with the sauce. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until heated through.

Step 10

Season with black pepper and kosher salt to taste.

Step 11

Remove from heat and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
