Best Cannellini Beans With Tomatoes Bulgur And Arugula Recipes

BRAISED WHITE BEANS WITH GARLIC AND ARUGULA

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and a sprinkle of kosher salt and saute for 1-2 minutes, lowering the heat if the garlic starts to brown.
• Stir in the tomato paste and let it cook for about 30 seconds. Add the cans of beans with their liquid, 1 cup of the chicken stock, and the bay leaf. Bring the beans to a simmer.
• Let the beans cook down, stirring occasionally, adding more of the chicken stock as needed to keep the beans saucy and not dry. Braise the beans for 20 minutes.
• Add the chopped arugula and cook until the arugula is wilted, about 5 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and serve.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH CANNELLINI BEANS

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook the garlic in the hot oil about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, wine, sage, and thyme; increase the heat to medium-high and simmer 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the cannellini beans and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until beans are heated through, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Arrange the arugula on a serving platter. Spoon the bean mixture over the arugula. Top with the shaved Parmesan cheese if desired.

BRAISED CANNELLINI BEANS WITH ONIONS AND ARUGULA

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a 1-quart pot over a medium-high flame.
• Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds, stirring constantly; the garlic should become aromatic and just lightly golden (do not burn it or it will taste acrid).
• Stir in the chili pepper and cook 15 more seconds.
• Add the onion and cook, still stirring, about 2 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and soft.
• Stir in the pepper and parsley and cook 1 more minute.
• Fold in the rinsed and drained beans, and then stir in the tomato paste.
• Add enough cool water (or chicken broth if you happen to have it on hand) to cover the beans by 1/4 inch (about 1 and 1/2 cups, depending on the width of your pot).
• Season with the salt and bring to a gentle boil, uncovered.
• Cover and lower the heat to medium-low; cook for 5 minutes.
• Uncover, stir in the arugula, and cover again.
• Cook for another 15 minutes.
• Adjust the seasoning if needed and serve hot.
