CANNELLINI BEANS WITH CRUSHED RED PEPPER



Cannellini Beans With Crushed Red Pepper image

Are you looking for a fast, easy appetizer - most likely with items you already have on hand? Look no further. This recipe comes from Eva Longoria. She suggests serving with toast triangles. You could use any type of cracker or bread. It doesn't get much easier! Note: try to use a good quality olive oil since there are few ingredients to this recipe. Someone used a flavored oil with success. I want to try that next time! One other reviewer added some garlic, which I think would be good. It's a simple recipe that you can tweak to your tastes. Enjoy.

If you want to make this dish vegetarian, use soy sauce instead of Worcestershire. I like this skillet meal served warm or cold. -Becky Cuba, Spotsylvania, Virginia

SAUTEED CANNELLINI WITH SPINACH AND GARLIC

Make and share this Sauteed Cannellini With Spinach and Garlic recipe from Food.com.

Provided by SarasotaCook

Categories     Beans

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

30 ounces cannellini beans (2 cans, drained but not rinsed)
1 onion (medium diced fine)
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
7 ounces frozen spinach (1 box Bird Eye or any brand)
2 teaspoons parsley (fresh and chopped fine)
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons white wine (or you can use chicken broth or just water to loosen up the sauce if too thick)
olive oil, to drizzle as a garnish

Steps:

  • Saute -- In a large pan, heat the oil. Add the garlic, onion and red pepper and saute for 2-3 minutes on medium until slightly soft.
  • Beans and spinach -- Add the beans, seasoning and saute on medium high to high until cooked through, about 5 minutes. As they cook I like to take a fork and slightly mash the beans a bit to get a good consistency. I like to get them a little crisp and browned but not fried dark brown. Just a light browning is good. Add the spinach and break up as it cooks. If too dry you can use a little white wine, chicken broth or just water to loosen the sauce if necessary. Garnish with some good olive oil and ground pepper.
