    Makes 8 servings

Ingredients

5 tablespoons butter, divided
4 large shallots, halved, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 1/4 pounds fresh wild mushrooms (such as chanterelles, stemmed shiitake, and oyster), trimmed, thickly sliced
1/2 pound button mushrooms, thickly sliced
1/3 cup Madeira
3/4 pound haricots verts or small slender green beans, trimmed
3 tablespoons (about) low-salt chicken broth (optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Melt 1/4 cup butter in large pot over high heat. Add shallots and thyme; sauté until shallots begin to brown, about 4 minutes. Add all mushrooms; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté until juices evaporate, about 10 minutes. Add Madeira; toss until evaporated, about 1 minute. Set aside.

    Step 2

    Cook haricots verts in medium pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain. Let stand until ready to use, up to 2 hours.

    Step 3

    Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter to mushrooms in pot. Add haricots verts. Toss over medium-high heat until butter melts and vegetables are heated through, adding broth by tablespoonfuls if mixture is dry, about 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer vegetables to bowl and serve.
