Delicious.
Ingredients:
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 medium leek, chopped (white part only)
1 medium garlic clove, minced
8 cups escarole, coarsely chopped (1 medium to large head)
1/2 cup fat-free chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated parmigiano reggiano recommended
1/2 cup dried breadcrumbs, coarse-style
2 tablespoons walnut halves, coarsely chopped
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375ºF.
2. Heat oil in a nonstick Dutch oven (a large pot with a tight-fitting lid). Add leek and garlic; sauté until leek is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add escarole and sauté, stirring constantly, until escarole is limp, about 1 minute; stir in broth. Cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until escarole is tender and broth evaporates, about 3 minutes; stir in beans, pepper and rosemary.
3. Spoon escarole-mixture into a 1 1/2-quart glass baking dish. Combine cheese, bread crumbs and walnuts in a small bowl; sprinkle over escarole-mixture. Bake until bread crumbs are lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
