Great Northern Beans
Steps
-
Preheat the broiler: Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven and turn on the broiler.
-
Sauté aromatics: In a large, oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and salt, and cook for 7–8 minutes, until softened and lightly browned. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 more minute, until fragrant.
-
Simmer the beans: Add the Great Northern beans, marinara sauce, oregano, and chili flakes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir to combine. Simmer until bubbling, about 5 minutes.
-
Add cheese and greens: Stir in the parmesan cheese and baby spinach. Simmer for another 3 minutes, until the spinach is wilted. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
-
Broil to finish: Sprinkle the mozzarella evenly over the top. Place the skillet under the broiler and cook until the cheese is melted and browned in spots, 2–3 minutes.
-
Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy hot with garlic bread on the side.
