OMG, I made this tonight and it is awesome! Truly an Italian classic. I didn't use a recipe - just put it together on a whim! I used pancetta, which is an Italian form of bacon that is not smoked.
I am going to apply to be on the next season of The Next Food Network Star. Why not!!!
Heat 2 TB olive oil in large skillet
Add 1/4 pound of pancetta (thick cut) diced
Once it starts to crisp up, add 1 large garlic clove, minced
Cook for a couple of minutes
Add 1/2 bag of chopped escarole, kale, or mustard greens. Allow to wilt, about 2 minutes, stir.
Stir in 1/2 cup of chicken broth and keep on high heat. Add 1/2 cup of cannellini beans (drained and rinsed) and fresh ground black pepper. Do not add salt, as the pancetta, chicken broth, and beans are already salty.
Top with freshly grated parm cheese. Good with a crusty bread, too.
