Number Of Ingredients 14

3 slices bacon, diced
1 sweet onion, diced
1 carrot, peeled and diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
5 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup brown lentils*
1/4 cup dry white wine*
2 (3-inch) Parmesan cheese rinds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 (15.5 ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
1 (14.5 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes, drained
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Heat a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat, reserving 2 tablespoons in the stockpot; transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Add onion and carrot, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in garlic, thyme and bay leaves until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in chicken stock, lentils, wine and Parmesan rinds; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat and simmer until lentils are almost tender, about 12-15 minutes. Stir in cannellini beans and tomatoes until lentils are completely tender, about 10-15 minutes more. Serve immediately with bacon, garnished with parsley, if desired.
