White Beans and Pork Sausage with Pistachio-Lemon Crumble
Need a warming dinner idea? This hearty White Beans and Pork Sausage with Pistachio-Lemon Crumble is perfect for a cold night. The crispness of the dry white wine, the floral notes of lemon zest, and the aromatic herbs balance the richness of the classic pork bratwursts and unctuous cannellini beans melting in your mouth. This soul-warming combination compliments beautifully the caramelized red onion and sweet bell pepper, resulting in a comforting meal.
This sausage white bean recipe comes together in about an hour. First, brown the onions, bell pepper, and bratwursts on the stovetop. Set aside. To the same skillet, add the lemon peel along with garlic and chili. Once fragrant, they’re deglazed with white wine to lift all the extra depth from the bottom of the pan before adding the beans and broth. Simmer, smashing some of the beans with the back of a wooden spoon, until the bean mixture is creamy but still brothy, about 5 minutes. Next, stir in a splash of the lemon juice and olive oil and nestle the sausages, onions and bell pepper into the skillet. Transfer to the oven and bake until the sausages are cooked through. Serve topped with herb pistachio-lemon crumble.
