Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 large tomato, chopped
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
4 leaves fresh sage
1 sprig fresh rosemary
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more to taste
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
3 (16 ounce) cans navy beans, rinsed and drained
1 bay leaf
3 cups water, or as needed to cover
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tomato and bell pepper; cook until pepper has softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in sage, rosemary, pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Transfer vegetable mixture to a large pot with beans and bay leaf over medium heat. Add enough water to cover. Cook, stirring occasionally and adding more water, a little at a time, if it looks like the beans are getting dry, about 30 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with chives and serve.

This stew is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added some chopped carrots and celery and it turned out great.

I love the addition of the feta cheese to this stew. It adds a nice tanginess and creaminess.

I found this stew to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more seasoning.

This stew was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think I'll try it again with less cayenne pepper next time.

This Mediterranean stew was a delight! The flavors were rich and complex, and the navy beans added a hearty texture. I served it with a side of crusty bread to soak up all the delicious sauce.
