Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup chopped pancetta
- ½ cup chopped white onion
- ⅓ cup chopped carrots
- ⅓ cup chopped celery
- 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 cups chicken stock
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ⅓ cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 bay leaf
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Melt butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add pancetta; cook and stir until browned, about 3 minutes.
- Remove pancetta but leave grease in the pot. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Saute until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Pour in white wine and bring to a boil while scraping up any browned bits from the pot with a wooden spoon. Boil until reduced by half, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Add in cannellini beans, chicken stock, Parmesan cheese, cream, rosemary, oregano, red pepper flakes, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring every so often to avoid burning, until the cheese and starch in the beans have thickened the liquid to a sauce-like consistency, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Reviews
Just made these and they turned out great! I did not have pancetta on hand, so I used some leftover ham. Since the recipe did not specify, I added the pancetta/ham when the beans went in.
LOVED It!!
