Vegan White Beans with Smoked Nuckhen Recipe
Herbs de Provence and hickory give this vegan meat substitute plenty of savoury flavours. Creamy white beans and golden, tender nuckhen are a perfect contrast.
by Jodi MacKinnon (QFG)
Ingredients:
Smoked Marinade
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 5 - 7 drops liquid smoke hickory
- 30 g nuckhen cubes
Savoury White Beans
- 1 cup white lingot beans (soaked overnight)
- 1 tsp herbs de Provence (AOC)
- 1/4 cup pearl onion (trimmed and peeled)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup kale (chopped)
- 1 clove garlic (finely chopped)
Instructions:
- Combine the olive oil and liquid smoke hickory in a bowl and toss with the nuckhen. Let marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes.
- Drain the lingot beans and put in a small pot with the herbs de Provence. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Simmer until tender, approximately 20 to 30 minutes.
- Half-way through cooking, add the pearl onions to the beans. When the onions and beans are tender, drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
- In a small pot, over medium-high heat, reduce the reserved bean cooking liquid until slightly thickened, and season.
- Heat the olive oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the kale and garlic and cook until wilted. Add the beans and onions, season, and heat through.
- Heat a saute pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the nuckhen and sear on all sides.
- Serve a portion of the savoury white beans with some of the reduced liquid. Top with the golden nuckhen and serve.
