White Bean Ragout with Grilled Garlic Bread

1 medium onion, chopped
1/2  roasted red bell pepper, chopped (jarred is fine)
1 Half Stick LAND O LAKES® Butter
with Olive Oil & Sea Salt (1/4 cup) plus 2Tbsp. softened
Freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, 1 minced, 1 halved
1 tsp. tomato paste
4 to 6 - 1" thick slices grilled ciabatta
4 Tbsp. grated Parmesan
2 15-oz. cans canellini beans (rinsed and drained)
2 cups vegetable or chicken broth
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh basil

Heat LAND O LAKES® Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt in a large skillet over medium heat.  Add onions and roasted red pepper and season with salt and pepper.  Simmer, stirring often until vegetables are completely softened, about 15 minutes.  Add grated garlic and tomato paste and cook about 3 minutes.


 Spread  bread with softened  LAND O LAKES® Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt and grill until golden and slightly charred.  Rub bread slices with cut sides of garlic clove. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  Add beans and  2 cups broth to skillet and bring to a boil.  Simmer until liquid is slightly thickened, 5-10  minutes.  Add tomatoes and simmer until tomatoes are tender, 3-4 minutes.  Stir in 2 Tbsp. Parmesan, season to taste.

Divide bread among bowls.  Top with bean mixture and broth.  Garnish with Parmesan and fresh basil.

This makes a hearty main dish.  Serve warm or at room temperature for a great simple weeknight summer meal.  Be sure to add enough broth as the bread soaks up those delicious juices.
The cherry tomatoes make this fast, easy and fresh.

  5. I'I'I'm drooling! This reminds me of yummy broth you have left over when you're done eating mussels and you must have crusty bread to soak it all up. I love beans and tomatoes and will definitely be trying this recipe.

  10. Spectacular dish, simple and not at all fussy, but satisfying and oh so delicious. I knew when I saw it in Bon Appetit that I would have to make it as well. But I didn't see any credit though to the magazine; even with your substitutions you should properly credit the original. It's only fair.
