Roasted Garlic Cassoulet
While in Spain many years ago I had several rustic dishes that highlighted beans cooked slowly with garlic and salty meat. This dish comes together quickly and is reminiscent of some of these Spanish-style dishes. Serve this with a fresh green salad and some great bread for a mid-winter lunch.
Ingredients
- 4 slices bacon, cooked and cut into pieces
- 7–8 garlic cloves
- 30 ounces canned cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
- ¾ cup chicken stock
- ¼ cup dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons bacon fat or butter
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 6–8 needles rosemary
Instructions
Serves 4–6
Preheat oven to 350°. Place all ingredients in a heavy Dutch oven or other oven-safe dish with a lid and stir to mix completely. Bake covered for 30 minutes and serve warm.
