Greek Butter Bean Salad With Tomatoes, Dill, and Oregano Recipe
Ingredients
1/2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
2 medium cloves garlic, minced
1 (14.5-ounce) can butter beans, drained and rinsed
1/4 cup canned tomato purée
1 1/2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon minced fresh dill
1 teaspoon minced flat-leaf parsley
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, preferably Greek
Pinch of ground cinnamon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Heat oil over medium heat in a medium skillet until shimmering. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until tender and nearly translucent, about 6 minutes.
Add beans, tomato puree, vinegar, dill, parsley, oregano, and cinnamon. Season with salt and pepper, bring to a simmer, and cook until flavors meld, about 3 minutes. Refrigerate until ready to serve or cool to room temperature before serving. This dish is best eaten at room temperature, so remove from the refrigerator 1 hour before serving.
