Ingredients

  • 1 15-oz/400g can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed (¼ cup liquid reserved)
  • 2-3 large cloves garlic finely minced
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil divided
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste
  • lbs 560g large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 large head escarole rinsed thoroughly and roughly chopped
  • Tbsp fresh lime juice
  • Freshly grated Parmesan cheese to serve, optional

Instructions

  • Add drained cannellini beans and minced garlic to a medium bowl. Top with one tablespoon olive oil, the smoked paprika, and the dried oregano. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and stir to combine. Set aside.




    Cannellini Beans with Seasonings
  • Heat one tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and lightly season with salt and black pepper, if desired. Sauté for 3-4 minutes,, stirring continually, until the shrimp is opaque. Do not overcook. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a plate and keep warm until ready to serve. Set aside.


  • Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and chopped escarole to the same skillet. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the escarole starts to wilt.
  • Add the cannellini bean mixture and the reserved ¼ cup liquid from the beans and stir to combine. Continue cooking for approximately 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the beans are heated through and the escarole is thoroughly wilted. Remove from heat and stir in fresh lime juice.
  • To serve, divide the warm cannellini bean and escarole mixture among individual serving plates and top with the cooked shrimp. Top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese, if desired. Enjoy!
