Baked Black Beans With Chorizo Recipes

CHORIZO BAKED BEANS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Dice most of the chorizo, leaving some in slice form if you want to use them for garnish like I did.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet over high heat.
• Add the garlic and onions and cook for 2 minutes or until starting to turn translucent.
• Add the chorizo (all of it) and saute until the chorizo is nicely browned.
• Add the remaining Baked Beans ingredients. Bring to simmer, then turn it down to medium low and leave to bubble away gently for 10 minutes or so, stirring occasionally. Add a splash of water if it gets too thick to your liking.
• Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

SLOW-COOKER BAKED BEANS WITH CHORIZO AND LIME

Steps:

• In a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker, combine the soaked beans, chorizo, onion, garlic, chicken broth, tomato purée, sugar, butter, tomato paste, onion and garlic powders, red-pepper flakes, cumin and paprika. Season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt (or 2 1/2 teaspoons if using unsalted stock) and a generous amount of black pepper. Using a spatula, stir well to combine, then smooth the top of the mixture to submerge as many beans as possible. (It's OK if some poke out of the liquid.) Cover and cook on high until the beans are very tender, about 6 hours.
• Stir in the lime juice and cilantro. Taste, and add more salt or pepper if desired. Serve with hot sauce.

CHORIZO & BACON BEAN STEW

Steps:

• Put the oil, chorizo, bacon and shallots in a good-sized saucepan. Turn on the heat and cook for 5 mins, stirring every so often. When the shallots are soft and the bacon smells cooked, add the herbs and paprika, and mix well.
• Add the beans and the chillies, give it a good stir and cook for 2 mins so the beans are coated with the mixture.
• Add the rest of the ingredients, plus 100ml water and some seasoning, then give everything a good stir. Bring to the boil, then lower to a simmer and cook for 30 mins, stirring, until it's thick. Once ready, remove the bay, thyme and chillies, then serve.

BLACK BEAN-CHORIZO STEW

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium heat in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottom pot. Add onion and cook until softened, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in chorizo and cilantro stems and cook 5 minutes over high heat, or until much of the liquid has evaporated.
• Stir in beans, tomatoes and their liquid, and 1 cup water. Bring mixture to a boil over high heat; reduce to medium.
• Partly cover pot and simmer until tomatoes have fallen apart, about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Season with salt. Serve topped with avocado, scallion, cilantro leaves and lime wedges.
