Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Escarole

    Wash the escarole thoroughly to remove any grit. Chop it roughly and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Add Escarole

    Add the chopped escarole to the pot and cook until wilted, stirring occasionally, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Combine Beans and Broth

    Stir in the cannellini beans, vegetable or chicken broth, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer.

  5. 5

    Season and Cook

    Add salt and black pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer for about 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

  6. 6

    Finish with Lemon

    Stir in the lemon juice just before serving for a fresh finish.
