Recipe Instructions

"Sweet caramelized onions and a puree of white beans pack rustic flavor onto wedges of Italian bread. Purchased focaccias or Italian bread shells make preparation a hassle-free delight." In large skillet cook and stir onions and pepper over medium high heat in hot oil uncovered 7 minutes or until onions turn brown.

Remove onions; set aside. Add beans to skillet; cook 1 minute. Add wine or broth and thyme; reduce heat and simmer uncovered 3-4 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half. Mash beans slightly. Spread bread shells with bean mixture; top with onions. Bake at 450F 10 minutes. Cut into wedges. Garnish with red pepper and fresh marjoram.
