Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup olive oil plus more for drizzling
8 ounces Portuguese sausage (such as linguiça) or kielbasa sausage, sliced 1/2" thick
1/2 medium onion, sliced
4 garlic cloves, smashed
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1 cup dry white wine
1 small piece Parmesan rind (optional)
2 chiles de árbol or 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 sprig thyme
1 bay leaf
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cups dried cranberry, navy, or cannellini (white kidney) beans (about 10 ounces), soaked overnight, drained
4 cups baby kale or baby mustard greens
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes. Add onion and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Add wine and cook, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pot and stirring occasionally, until wine is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add Parmesan rind, if using, chiles, thyme, bay leaf, broth, tomatoes, and beans. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer gently, stirring occasionally and adding water as needed to keep beans submerged, until beans are tender, 1-1 1/2 hours. Mix in kale and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Serve beans drizzled with oil.
  • DO AHEAD: Beans can be cooked 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.

I'm not a big fan of kale, but I loved this dish! The beans and Portuguese sausage were so flavorful that I didn't even notice the kale.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover beans and kale. I also like that it's a one-pot meal, which makes cleanup a breeze.

I was disappointed with this dish. The beans were overcooked and the kale was tough. I also found the Portuguese sausage to be too salty.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less sausage next time.
