How to Make 15 Minute White Bean Soup
- Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the sliced scallions and minced garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the scallions begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the dried oregano and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth and add the rinsed and drained cannellini beans.
- Bring to a simmer and cook for 4 minutes, or until heated through.
- Using a wooden spoon or potato masher, lightly mash about one-third of the beans against the side of the pan to create a slightly thicker consistency. Leave some beans whole for texture.
- Stir in the lemon juice.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Before serving, ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle each serving with grated Parmesan cheese.
- For leftovers, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to three days.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
