Number Of Ingredients 10

2 heads escarole
3/4 cup olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 cans cannellini beans
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
2 (15.5-ounce) cans chicken broth
Salt and pepper, to taste
Parmesan cheese, for serving
Black pepper biscotti, for serving

Steps:

  • Fill a large basin with water and add escarole; drain basin, refill with water, and return escarole to basin. Repeat this process at least 4 times, or until basin is free of sand. Drain, and chop escarole into bite-size pieces.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add escarole and cook 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Add beans in their liquid, oregano, red-pepper flakes, chicken broth, and escarole. Raise heat and bring soup to a simmer; cover and cook 15 minutes.
  • Place biscotti in individual serving bowls. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with Parmesan cheese.
