chef john's cranberry bean ragout

chef john's cranberry bean ragout
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 1 cup chicken stock, or as needed
  • 1 cup shelled cranberry beans
  • 1 cup freshly shucked corn kernels
  • 1/4 cup diced ripe tomato
  • 2 tablespoons dried currants
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest, plus more for garnish
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano, divided


  1. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic slices in hot oil until lightly toasted, about 30 seconds.
  2. Pour 1/2 cup chicken stock over the garlic; add cranberry beans, corn, tomato, currants, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper, respectively, and stir. Sprinkle 1 pinch oregano over the beans mixture.
  3. Bring the mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, add another splash chicken stock, and cook at a simmer, stirring occasionally and adding more broth to keep mixture from becoming dry, until the beans are completely tender, about 45 minutes.
  4. Stir remaining oregano into the beans mixture; transfer to a plate and garnish with lemon zest.
