Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6.

In a large ovenproof frying pan or casserole, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Add the thinly sliced red onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Add the chard and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
5
Stir in the butter beans, chopped tomatoes, honey, red chilli, ground cinnamon, and dried oregano, mixing well to combine.
6
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then transfer to the oven and bake for 20 minutes until the edges are brown and the flavors intensify. If you don't have an ovenproof frying pan or casserole, transfer the mixture to a baking dish before baking.

Optionally, let the dish sit overnight in the refrigerator to let the flavors meld together even more, then reheat and enjoy the next day.
