Steps:
- Put the collard greens and kale in a large microwave-safe bowl and drizzle with 2 tablespoons water. Cover with plastic wrap and poke a hole in the top to vent. Microwave until the greens are just wilted, about 3 minutes.
- Whisk the chicken broth, flour and Cajun seasoning in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Add the black-eyed peas, celery, scallions, andouille and bacon. Top with the wilted greens and gently press to submerge the ingredients in the broth. Cover and cook on low until the black-eyed peas are tender, 7 hours.
- Remove and discard the bacon. Lightly season the shrimp with salt and stir into the stew. Cover and continue to cook on low until the shrimp is cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt. Serve with rice and top with hot sauce, parsley and more scallions.

Steps:
- Drain the beans over a bowl and reserve the liquid. Put the white beans in a large skillet with just enough of their liquid to moisten them. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and bring the beans to a low simmer. Keep them warm while you prepare the shrimp.
- Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the shrimp, season with salt and cook for about 1 minute, tossing frequently. Remove the shrimp with tongs to a bowl. Add the garlic to the pan and saute until the garlic browns. Add the serrano chile or chili flakes and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomato and basil and stir briefly, then add the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 1 minute, and then stir in the shrimp. Toss well and cook briefly to reheat the shrimp. Remove the shrimp mixture to a plate and sprinkle with parsley.
- Spoon the white beans on a platter or individual plates. Drizzle them with the best olive oil you have, and then top with the shrimp. Serve warm.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat 2 Tbsps. olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to brown and render its fat, about 3 minutes. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add 3 cloves of minced garlic (about 2 Tbsps.) and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
- Add the dried beans and water, cover tightly and bring to a simmer. When the water is simmering, stir and place in the oven. Bake for 1 hour before stirring in 1 teaspoon of salt. Cover again and return to the oven to cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours total.
- Meanwhile, season the shrimp with the pimentón, ground cumin, the remaining 1 clove minced garlic and one-half teaspoons of salt. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoons olive oil and, when it is very hot, add the shrimp. Cook, stirring constantly, until the shrimp are bright red on the outside and firm, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and reserve.
- When the beans are tender, stir the shrimp and the chopped dandelion greens into the stew. Cook just long enough to wilt the greens, about 5 minutes. Season to taste, adding first salt and then the sherry vinegar, adding it about one-fourth teaspoons at a time. It will take only about 1 teaspoons total. The stew shouldn't taste noticeably sour, just more complex.

LEMONY SHRIMP AND BEAN STEW
With minimal prep and a quick cook time, this shrimp stew feels elegant for such an easy weeknight meal. You can also take the dish in a number of directions: Substitute the shrimp with an equal amount of flaky white fish or even seared scallops, or stretch the dish into a meal for six by stirring in some butter and serving over cooked spaghetti or rigatoni. A good glug of your best olive oil would also be a welcome.

Steps:
- Combine lemon zest, paprika, garlic, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat.
- In a large pot, melt butter over medium-high heat. When butter is foaming, add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and starting to curl, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to a plate; set aside.
- Add leeks, season with salt and pepper, and cook over medium until leeks are soft and starting to brown on the edges, 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add beans and chicken broth and bring to a boil over high. Lower heat and simmer, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in reserved shrimp and any juices from the plate, parsley and lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Serve with toasted bread.
Tips:
- Soak the beans overnight: Soaking the beans overnight will help to soften them and reduce the cooking time. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them in water for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
- Use a variety of beans: This recipe calls for white beans, but you can also use other types of beans, such as chickpeas, black beans, or kidney beans. Using a variety of beans will add different flavors and textures to the stew.
- Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the shrimp for just a few minutes, until it's pink and opaque.
- Add the dandelion greens at the end: Dandelion greens are a delicate green that can easily be overcooked. Add them to the stew at the end of the cooking time, so they wilt slightly but still retain their bright green color.
- Serve with crusty bread or rice: This stew is delicious served with crusty bread or rice. The bread or rice will help to soak up the flavorful broth.
Conclusion:
This white bean and shrimp stew with dandelion greens is a delicious and healthy meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this stew a try!
