  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.
