How to Make Asparagus And White Beans With Linguini

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 pound asparagus spears (trimmed) and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, until asparagus is crisp-tender.
  2. Add 1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans (rinsed and drained), 1/2 cup vegetable broth, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet. Stir to combine.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened.
  4. Meanwhile, cook 1 pound linguini according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  5. Season the asparagus and bean mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  6. Toss the cooked linguini with the asparagus and bean mixture. Serve immediately, topped with additional Parmesan cheese (optional) and a sprinkle of fresh parsley (optional).
