ROASTED TOMATO AND WHITE BEAN STEW



Roasted Tomato and White Bean Stew image

This hearty, flexible stew comes together with pantry ingredients and delivers layers of flavors. Cherry tomatoes, roasted in a generous glug of olive oil to amplify their sweetness, lend a welcome brightness to this otherwise rich dish. Onion, garlic and red-pepper flakes form the backbone of this dish, to which white beans and broth are added, then simmered until thick. While this stew is lovely on its own, you could also add wilt-able greens such as kale, escarole or Swiss chard at the end, and toasted bread crumbs on top. The dish is vegan as written, but should you choose to top your bowl with a showering of grated pecorino or Parmesan, it would most likely work well in your favor.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup roughly chopped Italian parsley leaves and tender stems
2 teaspoons lemon zest (from 1 large lemon)
2 (10-ounce) containers cherry or grape tomatoes
1/4 cup olive oil, plus 2 tablespoons and more for drizzling (optional)
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
3 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
2 (15-ounce) cans white beans (such as butter or cannellini), rinsed
1 1/2 cups vegetable or chicken broth, or water
Flaky salt, for serving (optional)
Toasted bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, gently toss together the parsley and lemon zest with your hands until well combined; set aside.
  • In a large baking dish or on a sheet pan, toss the tomatoes with 1/4 cup oil and thyme; season well with salt and pepper. Roast tomatoes until they have collapsed and begin to turn golden around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • When the tomatoes are almost done roasting, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large (12-inch), deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium. Add the onion, garlic and red-pepper flakes and cook until the onion is softened and the garlic is fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the rinsed beans and broth and bring to a simmer. With the back of a spoon or spatula, gently smash about ½ cup of the beans so they slightly thicken the broth. If you want a thicker stew, crush some more of the beans. Season with salt and pepper.
  • When the tomatoes are finished roasting, add them directly to the stew along with any juices that have been released. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes more so the flavors become friendly; season to taste with salt.
  • Ladle into shallow bowls. Top each serving with some of the lemon-parsley mixture and drizzle with some more olive oil, and season with flaky salt, if you like. Serve with toasted bread.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beans: For this recipe, you can use any type of beans you like, but canned or dried beans that have been cooked until tender work best. If using dried beans, soak them overnight before cooking.
  • Use fresh, ripe cherry tomatoes: This will give the dish the best flavor. If you don't have cherry tomatoes, you can use regular tomatoes, but cut them into small pieces.
  • Don't overcook the beans: They should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Add the beans and tomatoes to the pan at the same time: This will help the flavors to meld together.
  • Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a bit of chopped fresh herbs, such as basil or oregano, for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

This easy and delicious recipe is a great way to use up leftover beans and tomatoes. It's also a healthy and affordable meal that can be served as a main course or a side dish. The beans are a good source of protein and fiber, and the tomatoes are a good source of vitamins and minerals. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
