  • 2 cups chicken, shrimp, or vegetable stock
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary

  • Add sliced shallot to the pan. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then add beans, broth, and the whole sprigs of rosemary. Bring the mixture to a rapid boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 8 minutes, until the beans are tender and the liquid is reduced a bit. Remove the sprigs of rosemary. 1 large shallot, 1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, 2 cups chicken, shrimp, or vegetable stock, 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • Stir the shrimp and any juices back into the pan, followed by lemon juice and parsley. Season with more salt and pepper to taste. Serve right away with crusty bread, pasta, rice, or veggies as desired. 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 1 Tablespoon fresh parsley
