Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil: In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  • Sauté the onion: Add the diced white onion and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly golden.
  • Add the garlic and herbs: Stir in the minced garlic, fresh oregano, and dried Italian herbs. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Incorporate the butter beans: Add the drained and rinsed butter beans to the skillet. Stir well to coat the beans with the aromatic mixture.
  • Cook and meld flavors: Reduce the heat to low and cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the flavors to combine and the beans to warm through.
  • Adjust seasoning: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Optionally, add a splash of lemon juice or drizzle of olive oil before serving.
  • Serve: Serve warm as a side dish, on toast, or as part of a main meal. Enjoy!
