Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 tsp olive oil
1 medium leek -- chopped (white part only)
1 medium garlic clove -- minced
8 cups escarole -- coarsely chopped (1 medium to large head)
1/2 cup fat-free chicken broth -- or vegetable broth
15 ounces canned cannellini beans -- drained and rinsed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon dried rosemary -- crushed
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese -- Parmigiano Reggiano recommended
1/2 cup dried bread crumbs -- coarse-style
2 tablespoons walnut halves -- coarsely chopped

Preheat oven to 375ºF.

Heat oil in a nonstick Dutch oven (a large pot with a tight-fitting lid). Add leek and garlic; sauté until leek is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add escarole and sauté, stirring constantly, until escarole is limp, about 1 minute; stir in broth. Cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until escarole is tender and broth evaporates, about 3 minutes; stir in beans, pepper and rosemary.

Spoon escarole-mixture into a 1 1/2-quart glass baking dish. Combine cheese, bread crumbs and walnuts in a small bowl; sprinkle over escarole-mixture. Bake until bread crumbs are lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Yields about 2/3 cup per serving.
