White Beans w Cod and Sausge

  • 2 lg. cans cannellini beans

  • 2 shallots, sliced

  • 1 lemon thinly sliced, seeds removed

  • 1 bunch chard, thinly sliced (any hardy green will work)

  • 1/4 C. sliced cornichons (any pickled veg will work)

  • 1/4 C. rice wine vinegar

  • Fresh oregano- 4 sprigs, 1 TB. if dried

  • 4 cod filets

  • Fresh sausages

  1. Heat oven to 375. If using sausages, throw them on some foil and bake them while you are making the stew.

  2. Pour a generous glug of olive oil into a large skillet and when warmed, add shallots and lemon and saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Add chard and cornichons and rice vinegar, saute until wilted, then beans and let simmer to meld flavors about 5 minutes.

  3. Nestle proteins among stew. Get sausages out of oven and add them to stew. Drizzle cod with olive oil and sprinkle liberally with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Nestle in oregano sprigs as well.

  4. Put skillet into oven and bake 12 minutes, finishing with a short broil.
