In a wide, deep sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes, parsley, rosemary and onion. Cook until the onion starts to soften, about 5 minutes.

Add the beans and cook for a few minutes, stirring well, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Add the lemon juice and stock, stirring well. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer covered until beans are done, about 9 - 10 minutes. Taste for salt. Add more to taste.

There will be some sauce or cooking liquid in the pan. Spoon this flavorful liquid over the beans. Sprinkle with additional chopped fresh Parsley. Serve.
