Heat the butter and sun-dried tomato oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and onion and sauté for 5 minutes, until onions are soft and translucent.
Add your garlic powder, onion powder, and oregano to the pan and stir until the oregano is fragrant.
Add your beans, bouillon base, sun-dried tomatoes, and water. Allow to simmer for a 10 minutes.
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream and parmesan cheese until the sauce becomes smooth.
Let simmer for a few more minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Serve with crusty bread, steamed broccoli, or stir in spinach to get some extra greens.
- For a thicker sauce, simmer uncovered for a few extra minutes before adding your cream and parmesan cheese.
- Swap in a vegetable bouillon base instead of chicken to make this vegetarian.
