Ingredients
-
1 pound chicken apple sausage, sliced crossways 1/4-inch thick
-
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
-
1 onion, diced
-
1 tablespoon garlic
-
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
-
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
-
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
-
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
-
1/2 cup half-and-half
-
1 1/2 pounds fresh green beans, halved
-
1 1/2 pounds baby gold potatoes, halved
-
1 pound baby carrots
-
1 1/2 cups purchased fried onions
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and grease a 3-quart baking dish.
-
Brown sausage pieces in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, 3 to 5 minutes; remove from the pan to a large bowl.
-
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions, and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook another 30 seconds. Stir in thyme; season with salt and pepper.
-
Sprinkle flour over onions and garlic, and stir until flour has been absorbed, about 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in chicken broth and half-and-half. Bring to a boil, while stirring, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring, until sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove skillet from the heat.
-
Add green beans, potatoes, and carrots to the bowl with sausage; add sauce and stir to coat all ingredients with the sauce. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish. Cover with foil.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove foil, stir, and sprinkle fried onions on top.
-
Continue to bake until casserole is hot and bubbly and onions have crisped slightly, about 20 minutes more. Serve warm.
