Ingredients
- 4 links Italian pork sausages or similar, whole or cut into smaller pieces
- 1 pound chicken breasts boneless and skinless, cut into bite size pieces
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ½ teaspoon pepper or to taste
- 1 large onion chopped
- 1 medium carrot chopped
- 1 leek chopped (white and green part)
- ½ cup white wine such as a sauvignon blanc or pinot grigio
- 2 small shallots chopped
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 19 ounce cannellini beans (1 can), drained
- 1 teaspoon rosemary dried
- ½ teaspoon herbes de provence
- 1½ cup water
- 2 tablespoon parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325℉.
- Brown the sausage: In a dutch oven or heavy bottomed sauce pan, brown the sausages whole. I prefer a smaller bite so I dice them up in pieces. Remove them once browned.
- Cook the chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the Dutch oven next, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the chicken is no longer pink and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- Saute veggies: Add onion, carrot, and leeks to the pot in the residual sausage fat and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Then add the shallots and garlic and saute for an additional minute.
- Deglaze pot: Add the white wine to deglaze the pot, scraping any brown bits from the bottom.
- Finish the cassoulet: Return the protein to the pot and add beans, herbs, water and seasoning. Bring to a simmer then cover and transfer to the oven to bake for 2 hours.
- Garnish with parsley and serve.
Notes
- Leftovers: If refrigerated in an airtight container it should last up to 4 days, with its flavor peaking around the third day.
- Freezing: To freeze, transfer the casserole to an air tight container and allow to fully cool before freezing to ensure it lasts up to 3 months.
