Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 10 ounces applewood-smoked slab bacon, cut into 3/4-inch cubes 2 medium onions (about 6 ounces each), finely chopped 1 large shallot, finely chopped 1 garlic clove, minced 2 quarts homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock 1 pound dried white beans, soaked overnight, drained, and rinsed 3 large thyme sprigs 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper 1 head escarole, cut crosswise into strips
