Ingredients

8 servings

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup chopped pancetta
  • ½ cup chopped white onion
  • ⅓ cup chopped carrots
  • ⅓ cup chopped celery
  • 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ⅓ cup heavy cream
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 bay leaf
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add pancetta; cook and stir until browned, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove pancetta but leave grease in the pot. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Saute until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Pour in white wine and bring to a boil while scraping up any browned bits from the pot with a wooden spoon. Boil until reduced by half, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Add in cannellini beans, chicken stock, Parmesan cheese, cream, rosemary, oregano, red pepper flakes, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring every so often to avoid burning, until the cheese and starch in the beans have thickened the liquid to a sauce-like consistency, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
