Ingredients
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
5 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
A pinch of red pepper flakes
2 cans cannellini beans, drained
3 tablespoons pesto
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
3 cups chicken broth
1 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped black olives
1/2 cup roasted peppers
Directions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat, 30 seconds. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Stir the cannellini beans and 1 cup of water into the skillet. Simmer over medium heat until the mixture is just thickened, 8 minutes. Stir in the pesto and Parmesan.
- Add the chicken broth and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until the celery is tender, 15 minutes. Stir in the olives and roasted peppers to combine.
