Ingredients
3/4 pound sausage (removed from casings)
1 small chopped onion
2 minced garlic cloves
1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes
1 can (14.5 ounces) reduced-sodium beef or chicken broth
1 can (19 ounces) cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil, plus more for garnish
Grated Parmesan, for garnish
Preparation
In a Dutch oven, cook sausage over medium- high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until sausage is browned and onion is softened, about 8 minutes.
Add tomatoes and broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, partially covered, until tomatoes are softened, about 10 minutes.
Stir in cannellini; simmer until heated through, 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in basil. Garnish with grated Parmesan and whole basil leaves.
