Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 45m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 lbs sweet mild Italian sausage
2 cups coarsely chopped onions
6 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 head escarole, sliced crosswise into 1 inch strips
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cups beef broth
2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans or 2 (15 ounce) cans red kidney beans, drained
1 lb cellentani pasta or 1 lb fusilli, cooked and drained
1 cup freshly grated romano cheese

  • Add onions, garlic and escarole to the skillet and cook until the escarole is wilted.
  • Add broths, sausage and cannelini beans and simmer 15 minutes.
  • Stir in cheese and mix with hot pasta.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the dish will be. Look for fresh escarole, Italian sausage, and white beans.
  • Don't overcook the escarole: Escarole should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Overcooked escarole will be mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in this dish, so use a good quality oil that has a fruity flavor.
  • Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add other spices, such as red pepper flakes or oregano, if desired.
  • Serve immediately: Escarole with Italian sausage and white beans is best served immediately. The escarole will lose its crunch if it is allowed to sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Escarole with Italian sausage and white beans is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover escarole or Italian sausage. With its simple ingredients and bold flavors, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
