Precooked sausages slash the prep time of this comforting bean ragout. It's a complete meal in a bowl!
1 onion
vegetable oil
540-mL can diced tomatoes
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 cup chicken broth
4 to 6 roasted sausages
540-mL can white kidney beans
2/3 cup coarsely chopped parsley cilantro
Finely chop onion. Coat a large saucepan with oil and set over medium heat. Add onion and stir occasionally until it starts to soften, about 3 min. Meanwhile, drain tomatoes. Add tomatoes to onion along with garlic, thyme, salt, pepper and chicken broth. Increase heat to medium-high. Boil, uncovered, stirring often, until reduced by half, about 8 min.
Slice sausage into thirds (if frozen, defrost in microwave first) and stir into tomato mixture. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally until sausages are hot, 7 to 10 min. Rinse and drain beans, then add. Stir often until hot, about 2 min. Mix in cilantro. Have crusty bread on hand to sop up the sauce.
