Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Trim the ends off the fresh green beans and set a large pot of water to boil. Blanch the green beans for about 3–5 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender. Drain and rinse with cold water.
  3. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine heavy cream, chicken broth, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper, and simmer for about 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the blanched green beans and the creamy garlic sauce. Toss until evenly coated and transfer to a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  5. Sprinkle panko bread crumbs evenly over the top. Optionally, add a sprinkle of extra parmesan.
  6. Bake for about 25–30 minutes until the top is golden brown and edges are bubbling.
  7. Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley or extra parmesan before serving.
