Love the flavors of pizza? Of course, you do, you’re only human! Our chefs have channeled our favorite late-night bite into a one-pan dinner, packed with veggies and protein. Zucchini and cannellini beans simmer with tomatoes for the saucy component, which gets dolloped with creamy, mild ricotta cheese. Next? Hello, big, crunchy croutons! And a final flourish of Parm gets all melty when popped into the oven. Where has this skillet bean all our lives??

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Prep
1

• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Halve, peel, and finely dice onion. Trim and quarter zucchini lengthwise; thinly slice into quarter-moons. Dice tomatoes into ½-inch pieces. Pick parsley leaves from stems; roughly chop leaves.

Cook Veggies
2

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably ovenproof, pan over medium-high heat. Add onion, ¼ tsp salt (½ tsp for 4 servings), and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, 3-6 minutes. • Add another drizzle of oil, zucchini, ¾ tsp salt (1¼ tsp for 4), and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is softened, 4-7 minutes. • Add tomato paste, Italian Seasoning, half the chili powder (all for 4), and half the tomatoes. Cook, stirring, until tomato paste is darkened, 30-60 seconds.

While veggies cook, pat chicken dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a second large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken or sausage and cook, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

Make Croutons
3

• While veggies cook, halve baguette lengthwise. Brush cut sides with a large drizzle of oil; season with salt and pepper. Toast, cut sides up, directly on oven rack until golden, 5-6 minutes. • Transfer toasted baguette to a cutting board. Dice into 1-inch croutons.

Start Skillet
4

• Add beans and their liquid, stock concentrates, and ¼ cup water (½ cup for 4 servings) to pan with veggies. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. • Remove from heat. Stir in remaining tomatoes. TIP: If your pan isn’t ovenproof, transfer everything to a small baking dish now.

Stir chicken or sausage into pan along with remaining tomatoes.

Finish Skillet
5

• In a small bowl, combine ricotta with a drizzle of olive oil. Season with ¼ tsp salt (½ tsp for 4 servings) and pepper. • Dollop ricotta over skillet. Top with croutons and Parmesan. • Bake on top rack until cheese melts, 2-3 minutes.

Serve
6

• Garnish skillet with chopped parsley. Divide between plates or serve directly from pan.

Chicken Sausage is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.

Review summary

Updated on Sep 2026
  • Flavor: The Italian-style combination of sausage, white beans, tomatoes, and ricotta delivered rich, satisfying flavor — especially with the chicken sausage. One customer found the chili powder overpowering; start with a smaller amount and adjust to taste.
  • Ease of prep: This is a quick, straightforward one-pan dinner that comes together easily on a weeknight.
  • Suggestions: Coat the croutons in Italian seasoning and garlic before toasting for extra flavor, and add them just before serving so they stay crunchy rather than getting soggy. One customer had great results baking everything in a Dutch oven at 325°F for 45 minutes as an alternative method.
  • Leftovers: This dish tastes even better the next day, making it a great option for lunch 🍲.

So I had a time crunch and I modified the cooking slightly. Instead of cooking stovetop I cut everything up and added all the ingredients into a dutch oven and baked at 325 for 45 minutes. It was fabulous! Bonus, this made enough for my lunch today

Easy. Yummy. Filling. Can't ask for anything more than that for a fast one pan dinner.

This was yummy! Like an Italian style chili. Didn't like the bread though. Too soft. Got soggy and mushy fast.

Way too salty and too many ingredients for 4 people. I only used one box of tomatoes, one onion and one zucchini.
