Time 2h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

3 to 4 dried ancho chiles, wiped clean, stemmed and seeded
1 cup water
4 thick slices bacon, cut into strips 1-inch long x 1/8-inch wide
9 ounces chorizo sausage, removed from casings and crumbled
2 medium onions, diced
10 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups brown lentils, washed and picked over
3 quarts chicken stock, vegetable stock, or water
2 carrots, peeled and diced
2 celery ribs, washed and diced
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 bunch parsley, leaves only, chopped
1 bunch cilantro, leaves only, chopped
Lime wedges

Steps:

Toast the chiles in a dry, cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until brown all over; they will soften, bubble and release their aroma .Place the chiles in a saucepan with the water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook 5 minutes, or until soft. Transfer the chiles with their water to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Reserve.
Fry the bacon in large heavy stockpot over medium-high heat, about 4 minutes. Stir in the chorizo and saute 3 minutes longer, or until browned. Spoon out excess fat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden. Then stir in the garlic and cook for a few minutes to release its aroma. Add the lentils and reserved chile puree and saute an additional minute.
Pour in the stock or water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook 10 minutes, occasionally skimming and removing the fat from the top. Stir in the carrots, celery, salt and pepper. Cook over medium-low heat, covered, for about 40 minutes, skimming and discarding the fat from the top. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley and cilantro and serve hot, with the lime wedges if desired.

SPICY CHORIZO AND RED LENTIL SOUP WITH KALE

Spicy Chorizo and Red Lentil Soup with Kale image

This recipe, adapted from "The Alaska from Scratch" Cookbook," by Maya Wilson, transforms a brothy lentil soup into a spicy, warming main dish with the addition of fresh Mexican-style chorizo and chopped kale. This simple winter dinner also features carrots, which grow unusually sweet in Alaska's summer light and temperatures, and are a root-cellar staple. Sweet or spicy Italian sausage works well as a substitute for the chorizo.

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

4 links fresh (uncured) Mexican-style chorizo, casings removed (1 pound)
2 tightly packed cups chopped kale
1 medium onion, chopped
2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
2 stalks celery, sliced 1/4-inch thick
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 quarts low-sodium chicken broth
1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes, with juice
1 cup red lentils
Crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

Set a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking the sausage into small pieces and stirring occasionally, until the chorizo is browned, about 8 minutes.
Add the kale, onion, carrots, celery and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are just starting to become tender, about 5 minutes. You should hear a steady sizzle from the pot; adjust the heat as needed. Season with salt and pepper.
Add the chicken broth, tomatoes and lentils, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and gently simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes, or until the lentils are soft.
When ready to serve, taste and adjust the seasonings. Serve hot with crusty bread. Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 7 days.

SPANISH LENTIL SOUP WITH CHORIZO

Spanish Lentil Soup With Chorizo image

When I first arrived in Córdoba, Spain to study for a year, the cook in my dorm served this, my first lunch in my new home. I had never had lentils before, but this dish quickly became my absolute favorite. My additions to the recipe are the garlic, onion and potato; I tried carrot once but I overcooked it and was traumatized by the mushiness, so I haven't done that since. The best part about this recipe is it costs less than $10 to make and feeds many.
