A Tuscan-rub chicken roast bakes while creamy cannellini beans simmer in Spanish tomato paste and whipping cream, then go into the oven to crisp on top. Serve with soft polenta and a scatter of grated hard cheese. Bold, rustic flavours with almost no hands-on work. A comforting weeknight dinner that feels like a Sunday roast.
