Drizzle bottom of a heavy-bottomed pot with ½ the extra virgin olive oil. 2. Salt and pepper the meat then add to the pot and brown. 3. Remove meat to a plate and add the remaining oil back in the pan. 4. Stir in onions, herbs and red pepper. Cook onions until soft, about 5 minutes and then add garlic. Sauté for 2 more minutes. 5. Add beans, broth tomatoes and meat. Cook for 10 minutes and serve with chopped parsley and cracked black pepper and salt to taste. (If beans start to dry, add a bit more broth or water.) |
