Equipment

  • Equipment Needed: Large skillet, wooden spoon, measuring cups, and bowls.

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients
  • 1 lb Italian sausage sweet or spicy, depending on your preference
  • 2 cans 15 oz each cannellini beans, drained and rinsed (or 3 cups cooked beans)
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 can 14 oz diced tomatoes (with juice)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional, for heat
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Method
  • Cook the Sausage:
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the Italian sausage. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it up into bite-sized pieces with a wooden spoon. Remove the sausage and set aside.
  • Sauté the Aromatics:
  • In the same skillet, add the chopped onion. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Combine Ingredients:
  • Return the cooked sausage to the skillet. Stir in the drained cannellini beans, diced tomatoes (with their juice), chicken broth, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Simmer:
  • Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Stir occasionally.
  • Adjust Seasoning:
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes for extra heat.
  • Serve:
  • Once done, let it stand for about 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving hot.
  • Variations
  • Beans: You can substitute cannellini beans with other types such as kidney beans or navy beans for a different texture and flavor.
  • Sausage: Try using turkey or chicken sausage for a lighter option, or even vegetarian sausages for a meat-free version.
  • Vegetables: Add diced carrots or celery for extra nutrition and flavor.
