Yield Makes 10 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup dried lima beans
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
1 large onion, diced (2 cups)
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, trimmed and thinly sliced
8 ounces portobello mushrooms, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 pounds butternut squash, peeled, seeded, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 bay leaf
8 cups low-sodium chicken stock
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 bunch kale (8 oz.), stems removed and leaves thinly sliced (6 cups)
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Soak beans overnight in water. Drain.
  • Heat oil in a large pot over medium flame. Add onions and garlic. Cook until tender, 6 to 8 minutes; transfer to a bowl.
  • Turn heat to medium high. Working in batches, add mushrooms; cook until golden brown. Transfer to bowl and add more oil to cook remaining mushrooms. Return mushrooms and onions to pot and add squash, beans, bay leaf, and stock. Season with pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cover partially. Cook until beans are just tender, about 50 to 60 minutes. Stir in kale and cook until tender, about 5 minutes more. Season with salt.

I was really disappointed with this stew. The lima beans were overcooked and the sauce was too thin.

This stew was just okay. I found the flavors to be a bit bland and the texture was a little too mushy for my taste.

5 stars! This stew was absolutely delicious. I followed the recipe exactly and it came out perfect. The only thing I would change is to add a little more spice.

This stew was easy to make and packed with flavor. I used fresh mushrooms and lima beans from my garden and it turned out amazing. I'll definitely be making this again!

I'm not usually a fan of lima beans, but they were surprisingly good in this stew. The mushrooms were also very flavorful and the sauce was delicious. I served it over rice and it was a hit with my family.

This mushroom and lima bean stew was a delightful surprise! The flavors were so well-balanced and the texture was perfect. I especially loved the addition of the lima beans, which added a nice pop of color and a slightly nutty flavor.
