  3. Add tomato paste, then chopped tomatoes. Next, add chicken stock, navy beans, salt, red pepper, half of the fresh parsley and basil, and parmesan rind. Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer for 45 minutes or more, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add more chicken broth or water, if needed, for consistency.
