Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- For the Beans:
- In a medium sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add minced onion and fennel, season with salt, and cook for 4-5 minutes until tender.
- Add grated garlic and cook for 2 more minutes. If you like spice, add chili flakes at this point.
- Stir in beans and 1 cup of chicken stock. Let simmer for 8-10 minutes until reduced by half and beans are tender.
- Add the remaining 1 cup chicken stock and ½ cup olive oil. Stir, breaking up some of the beans to create a creamy texture.
- Add kale, ¼ cup grated Parmesan, and adjust seasoning to taste. For extra brightness, add a little lemon zest if desired.
- For the Sausage:
- Cut shallow diagonal slits on the top of each sausage link (do not cut all the way through).
- In a medium skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sausages, cut side down, and sear for 4-5 minutes until browned.
- Turn sausages, add ¼ cup water, cover, and cook for another 4 minutes until water evaporates. Uncover and keep sausages warm on low heat until ready to serve.
- To Serve:
- Spoon the creamy beans into a wide bowl, place a sausage link on top, and dust with grated Parmesan and black pepper. Enjoy!
