Beans and greens has it all: it's very easy and inexpensive to make;
it's highly nutritious; it's soulful and comforting; and it can be
served as a main course, side dish, soup, vegetable stew, or my
personal favorite--as an appetizer. This is my new favorite home
version, and uses delicious, beautiful escarole.

Heat 2 tb olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic; cook,
stirring, until bubbling and sizzling, about 20 seconds. Pour in
chicken broth. Bring to a boil and cook until liquid is reduced by
half, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in red pepper flakes.

Stir in beans; bring to a boil and cook until you can see the tops of
the beans just below the surface of the liquid, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir
in oregano, lemon zest, and anchovy filet. Simmer for 3 minutes.

Place escarole in bean mixture; reduce heat to low and stir until
escarole wilts, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to
taste; garnish with red pepper flakes and extra virgin olive oil.
