Ingredients

Instructions

  • Place a frying pan or Dutch oven on medium heat and add oil from the sun-dried tomato jar. Add shallots and garlic. Saute for 3 minutes or until the onion begins to soften.
  • Add the sun-dried tomatoes and cook until they begin to soften - about 2 minutes.
  • Stir in chickpeas, vegetable broth, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper. Bring it to a boil and cook for 6-8 minutes or until the mixture begins to reduce slightly.
  • Slowly add the cream and mix gently. Simmer for one minute, then turn off the heat. Stir in the parmesan cheese and mix gently. Top with parsley and serve.

Notes

  • Utilize the oil from the jar of sun-dried tomatoes to sauté shallots and garlic. This adds an extra layer of flavor and richness to the dish.
  • Adjust the amount of heavy cream according to your preference for creaminess.
  • You can substitute other beans like cannellini, kidney, or white beans for a different flavor profile.
