Weeknight Cassoulet

Serves 4

  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 4 sweet Italian sausages (about 1 pound total)
  • 1 onion (any color), chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, smashed and chopped
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Two (15.5-ounce) cans cannellini or white northern beans (undrained)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 cup panko, coarse fresh bread crumbs, or cracker crumbs
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 bay leaf
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Prick sausages all over with the tip of a knife. Add the sausages to the skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until brown all over, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.
  2. Add onion, celery, and garlic to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add beans and their liquid, the water, and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer. Slice sausages and return to the skillet. Stir in the vinegar and remove from heat.
  3. Preheat broiler with rack in the top position. In a small bowl, stir panko, parsley, and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season the bread crumbs with a little salt and pepper and scatter over beans and sausage. Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil (watch carefully! Broilers vary like crazy) until the top is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
Going into the fall, we need hearty dishes full of flavor that will fill our bellies and our soul. Normally, accomplishing such a task would take days, but with Dawn Perry's Weeknight Cassoulet you can have it all with little more than some pantry staples and 30 minutes.
