TUSCAN CANNELLINI BEANS



Tuscan Cannellini Beans image

An amazing side dish to Italian meats--pairs especially well with porchetta. I have a hard time finding dry cannellinis, so this recipe calls for canned. But if you can find the dry, I'd roll with that.

Provided by Brian Genest

Categories     Side Dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon butter
1 cup chopped pancetta
½ cup chopped white onion
⅓ cup chopped carrots
⅓ cup chopped celery
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
½ cup dry white wine
2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups chicken stock
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
⅓ cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 bay leaf
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add pancetta; cook and stir until browned, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove pancetta but leave grease in the pot. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Saute until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Pour in white wine and bring to a boil while scraping up any browned bits from the pot with a wooden spoon. Boil until reduced by half, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Add in cannellini beans, chicken stock, Parmesan cheese, cream, rosemary, oregano, red pepper flakes, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring every so often to avoid burning, until the cheese and starch in the beans have thickened the liquid to a sauce-like consistency, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

TUSCAN SAUSAGE, SPINACH AND CANNELLINI BEANS



Tuscan Sausage, Spinach and Cannellini Beans image

If you like spinach, you will like this easy, comfort food type casserole. The addition of the lemon and nutmeg helps give it a nice, fresh taste. It is important to squeeze as much liquid from the spinach as possible. I sometimes use a leftover croissant to make the breadcrumbs. This goes nicely with a Caesar salad.

  • Uncover and cook for another 20 minutes.
  • Stir them about halfway through the cooking time, and then again when you uncover them.
  • If you so desire, add a little chopped fresh cilantro to the chipotle version.

BAKED CHIPOTLE CANNELLINI BEANS WITH SPINACH AND COTIJA CHEESE RECIPE



Baked Chipotle Cannellini Beans with Spinach and Cotija Cheese Recipe image

Provided by ClaudiaJan

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 or 5 15 oz cans of cannellini beans, rinsed and drained (or cooked yourself)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon of salt
2 large cloves of garlic, minced
1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves, finely chopped
1-2 tablespoons adobo sauce from a can of chipotle peppers
2/3 cup spinach
1/2 cup Cotija Cheese (or crumbled feta if you can't find Cotija)
1 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425F degrees. Bring the olive oil, red pepper flakes, salt, and minced garlic up to heat over a medium flame for about a minute. Stir in the tomatoes and the fresh oregano and bring to a gentle simmer. Off the heat, add the adobo sauce and taste. I added a little too much the first time I made this, so beware, adobo is powerful stuff. Salt and pepper to taste, but go easy on the salt, because I find that canned beans can be a touch salty. Add the beans and spinach, and stir to combine. Pour the mixture into a 9x13 baking pan and sprinkle with the cheese and breadcrumbs and bake in the top-third of the oven for roughly twenty-five minutes, or until it is browned and bubbly on top. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • To save time, cook the cannellini beans in advance. You can cook them in a slow cooker or on the stovetop. If you're using a slow cooker, cook the beans on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours.
  • If you don't have chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika.
  • Use fresh spinach for the best flavor. If you only have frozen spinach, thaw it and squeeze out as much water as possible before using.
  • Serve the baked chipotle cannellini beans with warm tortillas, rice, or your favorite side dish.

Conclusion:

This baked chipotle cannellini beans recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy this healthy and versatile legume. The beans are simmered in a flavorful sauce made with chipotle peppers, garlic, and cumin, then baked until tender. The addition of spinach and cotija cheese makes this dish a complete meal. Serve it with your favorite side dishes and enjoy!
