Ingredients
1 pound dried white beans
1 tablespoon olive oil
5 ounces linguica sausage (or chorizo), minced
2 onions, minced
4 cloves of garlic, peeled
2 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
½ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
2 14 ½-ounce cans stewed tomatoes, drained
½ cup oil-cured black olives, pitted
⅛ teaspoon chili -pepper flakes
6 6-to-8-ounce cod fillets
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
Preparation
- Step 1
Rinse the beans and place them in a large Dutch oven. Cover with cold water, place over high heat and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, cover and set aside for a half hour, then drain.
- Step 2
Warm the oil in the Dutch oven, add sausage and cook for 2 minutes, add onions, garlic and drained beans, cover with cold water and cook over medium-low heat until almost tender, about 40 minutes. Drain excess liquid. Season with 2 teaspoons salt and pepper to taste. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Step 3
Pulse tomatoes, olives and pepper flakes in a food processor to combine. Arrange the cod on top of the beans. Sprinkle with ½ teaspoon of salt. Spoon the tomato mixture over the fillets and sprinkle with rosemary. Cover and bake in the oven until the fish is cooked and the beans are tender, about 20 to 30 minutes.

Excellent stew. I added a little parsley to the tomato sauce as well as two tablespoons of capers. Otherwise made as directed.
Soak the beans overnight or use canned beans. I followed this recipe, and the dried beans never became tender, so I ended up over cooking the fish in the oven trying to soften the beans. This recipe is missing a lot of key components and honestly needs to be deleted.
I made this tonight and it was so awful we binned it and ate bread and cheese. I followed the recipe exactly other than accidentally adding the rosemary to the beans instead of the fish. I’m not sure what went wrong but whatever it was went terribly wrong, teen declared this the 2nd worst thing I’ve ever cooked.
Used leftover Marcella Hazan tomato sauce, canned beans, Spanish chorizo, fresh cod from Costco, Food52 olive pesto. Delicious!
