Ingredients

    4 tbs Olive Oil, Extra Virgin
    .25 cup Lemon Juice
    300 gram(s) Escarole (1 Bunch)
    3 cloves Garlic
    1 tbsp Parsley, dried
    1 cup / 1 can Cannellini Beans (or other whit beans)
    2 dashes Salt

Directions

In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of the Olive Oil with the Garlic and cook over medium heat until the Garlic is light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the Beans and cook until heated through. Transfer mixture to a small bowl and stir in the Lemon Juice and Parsley, then season with Salt and Freshly Ground Pepper. Set aside.
Heat a large grill pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Brush the Escarole with the remaining 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil, season with Salt and Pepper and grill, turning once, until the leaves are wilted and slightly charred. Transfer to a platter.
Spoon the Beans over the Escarole and serve warm or at room temperature.
