Note

Use pre-cooked or canned cannellini beans for convenience; if using dried beans, ensure they are fully cooked before adding to the pan.

Baby onions can be substituted with finely chopped red or yellow onions for a milder flavor.

If you prefer a richer sauce, add a splash of cream along with the butter at the end.

Serve immediately with crusty bread to soak up the savory sauce and a fresh green salad.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop.
