Ingredients: Serves 3-4 people
1 Can of White Beans - I used Great Northern White Beans - drained and rinsed
1 Medium Red Onion - sliced into thin rings
1 Medium Radicchio - sliced thin = about 3.5 cups
2 Cloves of Garlic - pressed
1/2 Cup of Sherry Fino
1/2 Cup of Miso
3 Tbsp of Sweet Balsamico
6 Slices of Prosciutto - cut into approx 3/4 inch pieces
6 Figs - quartered
Fresh Marjoram and Thyme - 1tbsp chopped of each
Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil - approx 1 tbsp
Instructions:
Sauté onions in olive oil until slightly caramelized
Add radicchio and garlic - sauté until radicchio is wilted
Deglace with Sherry
Add beans, miso and herbs - simmer for just a few minutes so flavors can mingle and develop
Add proscuitto — keep on low heat for just a minute or two until prosciutto changes from bright pink to pale pink. Another option is to lightly fry the prosciutto separately as you would pieces of bacon and then add it to the dish.
Add balsamico, salt and pepper if needed and desired and serve with fresh figs.
