Ingredients
Directions
- In a large saucepan, combine oil and pancetta and cook over low heat until crisp and golden brown, about 4 to 6 minutes. Drain pancetta on a paper towel and reserve.
- In the same pan, cook onions over medium heat until golden brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. Tilt pan to remove excess fat; add beans, bay leaf, and 2 1/2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until beans are tender, about 50 to 60 minutes.
- Add pancetta and season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.
