BEANS

1
Combine all bean ingredients and heat on medium low.

While the beans are simmering, heat 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet over high heat.

Add the shrimp, season with salt and cook for about 1-3 minutes, tossing frequently until shrimp turns pink and begins to curl. Don't overcook! If you using pre-cooked shrimp, you basically are just browning them a bit.

Add the tomato and basil and stir briefly, then add the lemon juice.

Season with salt and pepper.
9
Cook for about 1 minute, and then stir in the shrimp. Toss well and cook briefly to reheat the shrimp.
10
Spoon the white beans on a platter or individual plates.
11
Drizzle with the best olive oil you have.
12
Top with shrimp mixture.
13
